EGR valve missing?

[crimsonGST]

I have a 97 GST with a 6bolt swap. I cant seem to find the EGR valve or solenoid. Does anyone have a picture of where any of that SHOULD be?

The EGR valve is below the throttle body, bolted directly to the intake manifold.

It's probably been eliminated if someone's done the swap. Most of us (myself included) find recirculating exhaust into the intake to be a dirty, dirty habit.

Solenoid:

EGR valve should be on the throttle body end of the intake manifold toward the bottom.

Are you using a 1g or 2g intake manifold?

This is off my 2g 7-bolt.

Follow the hose marked with green (and 'A') over the back....
then down to the thing circled in red. That's the ERG valve.

(My arrow heads meet end to end.)

It's the 1g. I'm going to look for it again in the morning. Thanks for the help guys!

Okay so after searching and searching, apparently the previous owner removed the EGR valve and solenoid, would this make my car run wierd?

It shouldn't. The removal of the solenoid might cause a CEL to appear, but it shouldn't effect the way your car performs. As stated by jusmx141, it's a common practice to remove the EGR (or block it off) along with the rest of the emissions clutter (as long you don't live in CA).

Well the wierd thing is, I drove it for quite some time and the CEL never came on, then all of a sudden the car started running like #### and the CEL came on. I started looking around, and noticed the EGR was missing.

What's the code?

 

[crimsonGST]

I'll have to go run it again.

6-bolt, 7-bolt, it's all in the same place.
