Thread: Egr line routing after deletion

What is the proper way to run the vacuum lines on the ( low port engine) after egr/bpt valve deletion. My car engine dies some times after I push in the clutch. What is weird is that I had all the lines disconnected from the egr before with no problems, But now I finally removed the egr valve from the intake manifold the car starts to act up.

Well first off you post this in the general section. Next..... < add answer here >

Took the words right out of my mouth.

Wrong section.

I'm having a hard time looking up BPT, could you tell me what it stands for?

As for the EGR lines, when removing the EGR pipe from the exhaust and intake manifolds, there are still a bunch of vacuum lines and a solenoid left over (along with a temperature probe). It's possible to remove the main EGR pipe (goes from exhaust manifold to intake manifold) without causing any vacuum leaks or problems as long as you plug up both holes properly. I believe it's also possible to remove some additional parts of the EGR system and cause a vacuum leak.

Your problem sounds more like an idle adjustment issue, but since it happened after you removed the EGR valve that is likely the cause. Tell me, did you remove the valve from the intake manifold and plug the hole left behind with something? A block-off plate perhaps? Also, did you plug up the hole in the exhaust manifold too? Just to get the obvious out of the way....

Taiden did a nice photo of the rerouting stuff - if you look up egr delete I'm sure you'll track it down.

Hey Ben, They say( Bpt) stands for (back pressure transducer)???? It is pointed out by the yellow arrow up above. I did block of the holes in the header and the intake manifold but maybe I didn't seal that one too good, I will try to reseal it with some liquid gasket and see what happens.



Hey canx2k, searched that members name and his posts, I did not see the related article that you were speaking of. I do remember seeing it before maybe it's on the old forum, do you think so?

**** my bad man - yes, it's on the old forum. check perhaps b15sentra.net too I think there was one there as well?

whaddya know - I had it bookmarked in my favorites when I did a removal on my wife's b15. That'll be $1 to go to my ve fund ha ha

Holy crap man those diagrams are awsome man!!!! I'll try that, I hope it will solve my issues as well. Worth every penny!!
