> Hello, > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > Thanks, > Talal Itani How many miles are on the car? With the engine idling, apply vacuum to the EGR valve and see if the engine starts to idle roughly or start to die. If that happens, check the EGR position sensor. If the engine does not start to die, check the EGR tube for blockage. Most likely, the EGR tube is blocked with carbon buildup. If that is the case, you can try to dig out some of the carbon or replace the EGR valve and tube.

Hello,
My Camry '97 just failed inspection. It is code P0401. 'Exhaust Gas Recirculation Flow Insufficient Detected.' Would you please give me your recommendations.
Thanks, Talal Itani
