I have an EGR valve that was giving me trouble. I had the computer hooked up and found that I needed to replace the EGR. I did that and it worked fine for a while, but now the light is back on. The computer was hooked back up and it says there is an insufficient air flow problem to the EGR. Wondering what all I need to check to try and solve that problem?

When you replaced it, did you check for carbon build up where it attaches to the intake? Also, check the vacuum hose going to it to make sure it isn't plugged.

Let me know what you find.
