Car Forum / Dodge / Dodge Trucks / February 2006egr valve on a 96 dodge ram pick up
can anyone tell me where to locate the egr valve on my 1996, 1500, v-6, 2 wd, ram pick up? and what needs to be done to change it. >can anyone tell me where to locate the egr valve on my 1996, 1500, v-6, 2 >wd, ram pick up? >and what needs to be done to change it. It's under the hood. You remove the old one and install the new one. In your case you should just take it to a mechanic because it is obvious that you don't even have enough sense to look in a repair manual. beekeep yeah thanks for the help.... nice to see there are still jackass pricks left in the world!!! ((after the "beekeep"er whacked the hive to liven up the honey production) > yeah thanks for the help.... nice to see there are still jackass pricks > left in the world!!! =========== =========== It's even nicer to know that idiots are still work'n on their own vehicals when they ain't gotta clue what their doin........what their work'n on....why their work'n on it......how to do it.......how to find it....... what it even looks like.....why it's there in the first place...........how to fix it.......what to do with it..........all because some dude down to the ole AutoZonedOut store popped a forty dollor scanner in a hole and yanked out a code..........FOR FREE.........after he jest quit the Dollar Hide Shoe store last week to make an extry $1 an hour............ cuz the job ticket is usually higher AFTER they git done turn'n som'tin easy into a costly situation........ on a part that ain't gonna get rid of the symptom in the first place. you have officially been helped...... all yer gonna be.... that'll be $1 please...... we take paypal. ^ ^ oo L O ~:~ MARSH MONSTER ~grrrrrrrrrrr~ wow thats really smart.... obviously there are atleast 2 jackass pricks left in the world. i guess you 2 pussys were born knowing everything about automotive repair. i guess i shouldve took a shop class in high school too. now i would like to thank you two bitches for your help and hopefully this idiot can run right into your wonderfully kept vehicles since i dont know everything about my truck, or mabey there is someone here that might know something about my problem that is not a bitch and can just give a little help. > wow thats really smart.... obviously there are atleast 2 jackass pricks > left in the world. i guess you 2 pussys were born knowing everything about [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > something about my problem that is not a bitch and can just give a little > help. ========= ========= For your information little buddy, Unless you're attitude takes a Course that's more condusive with Kindlier actions...........

No, we just have enough sense to own the shop manual for our vehicle. BTW that brick building down the street called a library has books in it. Being as shop manuals are books you may find one in there! If you cant read most of them have pictures with arrows. beekeep >yeah thanks for the help.... nice to see there are still jackass pricks >left in the world!!! I gave you the best advise that you are going to get in this place if you are going to do your own wrenching - BUY THE MAINTENANCE MANUAL FOR YOUR VEHICLE. BTW "dodge 1500 egr valve" on google gives 24,500 hits! beekeep > can anyone tell me where to locate the egr valve on my 1996, 1500, v-6, 2 > wd, ram pick up? > and what needs to be done to change it. Well - I see you've met some of the group :) Greg (beekeep) is okay - ya just gotta get used to him. The other guy, well.... he sticks his head in here every once in a while, spouts off some stupid nonsense, then disappears for a while. Best just to ignore him - he has no useful information for anyone. On to your problem... the EGR valve is located on the back of the intake manifold. Look for a tube coming up from the passenger exhaust manifold, and trace it to the EGR valve. Removal is pretty straight-forward - after getting rid of the air box, air intake hose, and anything else that's in the way, remove the EGR tube, then disconnect the electrical connector and vacuum hose from the transducer, then finally remove the nuts holding the valve assembly to the manifold, and remove the entire assembly. It's a little tight back there, and don't be surprised of the bolts/nuts (especially the ones holding the EGR tube to the manifold) are rusted in place - spray them down with some penetrating oil before trying to back them out. A Haynes manual, #30041, can be picked up for under $15 from your local parts place - it'll have diagrams and pictures to assist. thank you for your help. i do have the haynes book, but unfortunately it doesnt go into detail about the egr valve, it only mentions the name a couple times. > thank you for your help. i do have the haynes book, but unfortunately it > doesnt go into detail about the egr valve, it only mentions the name a > couple times. Pages 6-24 and 6-25... 3 diagrams pertaining to V6/V8 EGR valves, 3 photos on procedures to test, and about a full half-page of text on check/removal/replacement steps. |
