I have a bad vacuum leak where the EGR tube goes into the upper intake. There is too much play back and forth when bolted in. Like it is missing something. It is causing the engine to surge in and out. What can I do?

Hello,

There is a gasket that sounds like it missing or broken that holds the tube steady and keeps it sealed. Here are some diagrams that can help you see what I am talking about so you can get the problem fixed. (below)

Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.

Cheers, Ken
