[diesel_mercedes] EGR Valve

 

O.K. ;

My car has had very slow boost pressure rise when I throttle up so in frustration I simply yanked the hose off the EGR valve and the ' air by pass valve ' (?! I dunno, that's what it's called on the vacuum hose sticker)  and Lo ! I am rewarded with almost instant boost as soon as I apply any throttle , more power , faster acceleration and less smoking .

Progress although it's still not as goo as I know it can be .

I need to find a junked W116 (hint) , it needn't run , I need to remove some ' non wear parts off it's engine in case anyone finds on in a California Junk Yard or has one languishing beside the garage.....


TIA , remember me in two years as I work slowly.....
