there was never an EGR valve on the cummins, the 6.7 has an egr system which probably has some sort of valve in it, but the 12v surely never did

Ya dude 12v's didnt have any trace of pullutant control on them. Thats why they "pollute like freight trains".

I would get rid of those parts first thing, nothing good can come from that at all, it's absolutely ridiculous

yeah all you have to do is make to block off plates and then take a golf tee and block off the main vacume line that runs to the egr regulator, i have been studying it

I blocked off the egr in my volkswagen tdi.. in fact, instead of a block plate, I pust a custom made egt probe down in there hehe (since its attached to the exhaust mani right above the turbo)
