wanted - EGR blanking plate

[stinka]

Just took one off.What happens about the pipe running to the exhaust if you remove it completly my worry would be although its a fairly think pipe if its not supported the vibration from the engine will eventialy cause it to crack and fail unless its properly supported.I think if i were doing it would use some 1mm copper and slide it in one side and leave the valve in place the copper will also act as good gasket to seal gasses

I just left the pipe loose, it sits on top of the bell housing. I thought about tieing it up to the bracket on the block with some wire coat hanger or sommit, but I've left it for now. Mine had some up and down movment anyway, like it was lose on the exhaust anifold, not sure how it attaches exhast side as i think its under the turbo heat shiel, didnt have a proper look just figured i'd keep my eye on it and listen for a developing blow and perhaps weld sommit over it depending on how it attaches to the manifold/turbo etc

ok, i still need a blanking plate. I cant get one made myself, and i cant buy one. I have been in touch with a guy on Ebay, but he wants dimensions, which I dont have.

can anyone make me one?

i'm also wanting to do the ejr blanking but haven't had the balls yet until i'm 100% sure what to do! is it just a matter of unbolting the egr ans putting a plate in then putting the egr back on to make it look normal? if that's all, i might have a go

basically yes ..... allthough you may need longer bolts to bolt the egr back on .... i had my egr valves ( i had 2 ) completely removed and the blanking plate put over the holes using the original bolts

yes Ryan, it really is that simple. a little awkward as far as I can see, but i had a good look at the weekend, and i reckon it can be done through the top using a thin but decent quality long wrench, 1/4" so it will fit. Two bolts, slide in the blanking plate, bolt back up. MIGHT have to loosen off at the exhaust side for movement, im not 100% sure yet, but shouldnt be too tricky if that is the case.

Peter, yes, i emailed the chap, he doesnt have any, and can only make one if i can get the dimensions ?!

i tried to take the egr off my scrappy but because theres no gear box, the engine has fell back against the bulkhead, so i couldnt get dimentions:doh i would think they are just the same on th TD and TDI

the egr looks fairly simple to get from under the wheel arch, i can actually get my arm right up between the starter and engine and feel the bolts,, thats the good thing about having long thin arms:clap:lol:lol

clive get me dimensions and i will make you one at work (free).. and half dozen more for other people posted for £1 each. i have a lazer at my disposel

 

[larson]

send me a text clive if you get the dimensions as i dont sign in here often

 

[(RIP) PLANK]

Does the EGR have a gasket? if so could you get a new one and use it as a template for a blanking plate :nenau

Even post it to Larson, to take up his very generous offer :thumb2

All very well but you need sealant of some sort or you'll probably get a boost leak from the inlet manifold side, its no different to bolting up the inlet manifold to the head and u wouldn't do that without a gasket

I used copper rtv in the end and blanked both sides doing away with the egr valve
