ebpv?? need help
 

my ebpv does not work at all on my 96 powerstroke. i can manually open and close the valve from under the hood but it is a pain. any one know how to help so i can fix it or make a switch just open and close it

you can wire it open or pop it off the exhaust housing and cut the valve out and put freeze plugs in the holes, thats what I did

where do i get freeze plugs... and is there no way to wire a switch to it?

you can wire a switch to it to manually operate it and manualy lock your tc. I followed instructions i found on powerstroke.org

Is that kinda like a ghetto exhaust brake then?

That's REALLY hard on shit, doing it that way.

I ran all my PSD's with that exhaust brake like that... 95,97, 99 and the 01 until the H2e... Works slick as hell.

What valve are you operating from under the hood, just to be clear. Its on the BOTTOM of the turbo, not the top.
