Ok well i had the battery out putting in new intercooler piping and a new slave cylinder when i found a part that i think is the egr solonoid(yes i searched). Ther part has a hose about a foot long(looks like a cooliant hose), attached to a disc, then has a vacuum line coming off the disc. I am getting ready to do the six bolt swap but wanted to get everything in this car right before i did it so i wouldn't lead into alot of problems later. the hose that is on this has a bolt capping off the end, which i dont know why cause i dont think anything would come out of it. Now if this is the egr i take it that its already blocked off? I am not getting any cel either. If this is the egr tell me the best route of what i should do-#1 take it all the way off #2 hook it back up #3 leave it how it is. I can find alot of shit on egr blockoff but that is all it tells you is how to block it off not what to do with the shit you do block off!

I came up with this from google 1997 EAGLE TALON EGR Valve
Looks like you were right. As for what you should do with it, I'm not really sure. I'm down here in Cali so I would hook it up right for smog purposes but you probably don't have to worry about that.

yeah i dont have to worry about that. I could be dumping nuclear waste out of my car and they wouldn't say anything here LOL
 
It's not like it'll cause genetic damage, there.
oh we can always count on Defiant as being the sites asshole/ moderator that doesn't have a life. Downing WV huh? LOL, its cool. I know you have to post on every thread so maybe you can hit 30,000 post by the end of the week. Do you have a life? I mean come on what do you do? sit in your room at your mommys and daddys all day and post pointless shit? You have to be on here atleast 8 hours a day? Don't go crying about this either. if you can dish your smart ass comments out, then you can take them!
 
Not quite. I think he sits at the CHP station and post pointless shit. :D:D Just kidding. But, Defiant knows a thing or two about these cars. IMHO, i think he helped Diamond Star codevelop the 4g63 way back when. Then he left, and thats when crankwalk happen. Sounds pretty correct to me. LOL

Dude who cares seems to me like your offended ...
Defiant please put him on his place..:D
 
Thats an EGR valve from a 420a engine. (notice the Chrysler emblem?)


What is it doin under your hood?

that isn't from under my hood i just found a picture of what it looked like to show you guys, rather then have a hard time explaining it.

oh it doesn't offend me at all, just sick of the stupid shit he is always saying. He needs to loosen up or something. Maybe get some ####ing ####y! he can't have a gf or any significant other for that matter. The man doesn't have a life! He sits on here all day and night, and post pointelss shit!

Why wouldnt you just take a pic of what youre talking about? I guess to each his own.

And if you dont like "Defiant", cry about it. He has no reason to spoon feed you or hold your hand across the street. He knows more than 90% of the "tuners" on this board.
 
Dude that valve only comes on 420a motors...
So your doing a 4g63 6bolt swap to your 420a engine bay?

Dude read what i wrote! i said i just found that picture on the internet. That part looks almost identical to the egr solonoid that is on our cars. The only different is it doesn't say chrysler. i will try to find a picture or just take one if you like. Doubt i will even have time since this thread will probably be cloesd, for obvious reasons.

Dude you need to be more specific that valve looks nothing like the one on our cars...
And it seems to me like your the one that needs to get some****y not defiant
 
haha no problem getting ####y here, i got alot of cousins :barf: jk. And the valve really does look like that i will take a picture for you!

I could care less about defiant, just dont care for his smart ass comments. Why wouldn't i take a picture? cause my garage is 40 minutes away, and taking a picture of something is the last thing on my mind. But when i go up there this weekend i will take a picture just to prove to you and everyone else that thats what it looks like! As far as where it came from i have no idea? I am starting to think it came from underneath the battery where that charcoal canister is, i think it may off been attached to the bottom of it? I am unsure though i haven't had time to take out the batter tray and remove that canister.
 
No need for the pic here it is i just took this just for you..

thanks man but thats the wrong pic. That is the EGR valve., i know what that is! I never would of started this thread if i knew what the part was. Hell it may not even be the egr solonoid? But, it does look identical to the picture i posted. I will say this though this is my fourth dsm and i have never seen this part before. I really dont think it comes on the first gens, never seen it anyway. It looks extactly like the picture i posted, only difference is that mind has a bolt plugged into the end of the big tube. I'm not sure why its in there though since the other end is open and the vaccum line goes down inside another tube about the same size of the tub that is plugged.

West Virginia is a lovely place. It's just some of the people from there, like ones that can't spell "solenoid". Terrific place to vacation, though.

Enjoy yours. :thumb:
 
I stayed up till 3:45 to read that. Cmon Defiant, give 'em hell. :D Time for bed. That was a pathetic fight. LAME :tease:

James :laser::talon:
 
Why was the thread resolved? the part was never named? Your right it is a great place to vacation, let me know when you come in maybe we could meet up.
