    oops seems i have the wrong end of the stick. dont really matter as they filouke wont  get back to me to tell me its the wrong item im showing in the piccy. thaught egr valve were more prone to go on the fiesta diesel engine

    I had always thought that it was only on diesels.

    But my previous car a Saab 9-5 petrol had an EGR valve.

    That is why I asked here because I did not find it on this engine.

    Drawback.

    Just like induction filters they actually dont do anything at all or negatively affect the engine; thats fact - all this horseturd about it increasing power the only thing it does is make you look like a boy racer f@nny who thinks adding coloured tubes to the engine makes it powerful and pretty but it just empties your pockets and does f**** all for the engine!

    What it does is IT keeps the hot gasses out from your airfilter that sucks it back in the engine .

    I can tell you it does not make any diverens in power butt it keeps my engine tidy inside thats the only reason it put it on there.

    By the way i moved the breather to the front down where there is cool air because the fumes came in the car .

    Its done al for the so cald envirement the old cars din't even have these usely it was just a vent tube that went right back in the carter.

    Image result for egr valve location on a ford ka

     

    thats what your looking for they put them ontop the engine like the picc or at the front of the engine see pic below 

    some are plastic and some metal.

    remove the 2 bolts and unplug the item then soak it in petrol or give a good clean with wd40 or a good degreaser then refit it.

    its to do with the idle as sometimes it sticks and the engine over revs or cuts out.

     

    sometimes it mounted at the front of the engine just below the manifold. acces is usually ok from the top

    a pic of the engine maybe of help for us as they have changed things on the engines and moves nabout

    hope this is of help

    let us know

     

     

    I think its the idle control valve you are showing here

    I have used the Goodyear Vector 4 with Snowflake symbol (All-Season) and they have done a pretty good job. Not once the car fell out of control :)

    I have changed my mind and bought Nokian WR D3 155/70 R13 75T 3PMSF .

    The reviews where very good it has 4.5 stars out of 5
