Stewart0777 Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Hi Does anybody know the best way to clean an egr valve off a 2006 focus 1.8 tdci? Would I use egr cleaner or just paper towels Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IINexusII Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 you can use Wynns EGR cleaner to do this. Is the EGR blanked off? i would fit a solid blanking plate once you have cleaned the system, you will love the improvement 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnH Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Ive used wynns on my old 2006 1.8tdci in the past with no issues...however use only very short blasts. Any long blasts will stall the engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ianb Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I heard that there is zero point to cleaning an egr if you blank it.... So I'd just blank it and be done... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IINexusII Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 well you would have gunk in the intake manifold which is what the egr cleaner will clean. then you blank the EGR off so no more gunk can get in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
