not very long. pull the code and determine the exact problem. if
you've already done that, post the code along with your
question!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!

yes, it regulates emissions and reduces combustion temperature. that in
turn reduces oil consumption & extends the life of "hot" components like
exhaust valves.

Re: EGR valve????
Hi,
I'm not sure what the code exactly looks like... but the guy at Autozone
gave me a ticket that reads, "Wells... EGR4045... O.E.M. #18011-P13-00"
Does this mean that I have to change the entire valve or just the
gasket???
thanx again...

What engine?
Some 2.2 Honda's clog the passages and cause egr problems, not a big fix and
cheap too.

You're going to have to be more careful in your reportage. That code is
