Hey guys, I was just wondering, I tested my EGR valve and I know that it is pooched. I was just wondering what your guys take would be on aquiring a used EGR valve from the wreckers? Is this wise? Etc. I am a little strapped for money right now is why I am asking. I just want to know if I am wasting my time or not? Thank you!

Hi Marhong,

Getting such parts from the scrap yard is a from of testing your luck. If the item is good, you are in luck. If not, you might be running around getting it replaced.

No harm though, except some hard work for nothing if it fails.
