mintalkin Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 it could be the egr valve stuck open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mintalkin Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 this link will give you some idear on whats involved its for a euro 4 engine,yours i think will be a euro three so the valve may be in a different position on the engine and would not have the electrical connector on it. http://fordwiki.co.uk/index.php/EGR_Valve_and_Inlet_Manifold_Clearout_TDCi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
