How To Clean An Electronic EGR Valve

Disconnect the negative battery cable. By removing the negative battery cable from the battery, you ensure no current is flowing through the system and avoid short-circuiting the electronic component that controls the valve.

Disengage and remove any sensors and electrical connections along with any hoses.

Loosen the bolts to remove the EGR valve and gasket.

Check the hoses and gasket for wear, to replace or reuse.

Spray the valve and hoses with carburetor cleaner, using a brush to clean off the carbon buildup out of any hoses and small hole with the pintle. Do NOT spray the electrical connections or sensors with the cleaner. However, you may want to purchase a can of electronics cleaner and di-electric grease if the connectors appear to be corroded.

Reinstall the EGR valve using the gasket and bolts, and reconnect the electrical connections and sensors with any hoses.

Reconnect the negative battery terminal.

Transverse Vs Longitudinal Engines: The Pros And Cons

The way in which an engine is orientated can have a huge influence on the rest of a car’s design. Should the car be rear-wheel drive? What size of engine is expected? Are there space issues that could influence which way the engine lies? All these questions have to be answered by the engineers responsible for the car, as the powertrain setup can have a large impact on how the car goes, handles and stops. Looking at front-engined cars, the two possible orientations are longitudinal and transverse, with each having its own benefits and drawbacks that can govern which is chosen for the car at hand. In-light of this engineering decision, here’s a basic guide to the features of each engine layout and which is best for different applications. Transverse engines Transverse engines are mounted perpendicularly to the direction of travel, lying horizontally within the engine bay. This is predominantly used in front-engined, front-wheel drive setups but has also been implemented i...

Top 7 Cars with 200 Stock Horsepower

A decade or two ago you would have had to buy a sports car (and opt for the most powerful engine) if you wanted a vehicle with more than 200 horsepower, but today, that amount of power comes standard in a wide range of cars, from compact luxury cars to open-top sports cars. I have narrowed the list down to the top 7 of my favorites, and all have more than 200 horsepower (and less than 250) from the standard engine that comes in the base trim level. Read on to see our list of top 7 cars with 200 horsepower stock, sorted by power. Audi TT The Audi TT is a 2-door sports car powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline 4-cylinder engine that makes 220 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. All models use a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission that sends power to all four wheels using the quattro all-wheel drive system, making the TT a surprisingly good (and fun) all-weather car. Fuel economy is rated at 26 miles per gallon combined (using premium fuel) and the run to 60 miles per hour takes 5.3...

VolksWagen Jetta Mk4 Custom Coupe 4Motion R32 Twin Turbo Build Project.

VolksWagen Jetta Mk4 Custom Coupe 4 Motion R32 Turbo Build Project He and his mates were out hooning in a borrowed MK4 R32, when they hit a 30-mph corner at 100 mph. They survived, the R32 did not. But the 4Motion lives on in a MK4 Jetta coupe. You heard right. The ol' Waterfest/H20/Motorstadt crowd may recall 1552 Design's Project X, which the shop chopped a Jetta sedan into the coupe many wished VW would build. This Kiwi project employs the guts from that lost R32—the carcass of which the builder acquired from the previous owner—in the service of a Mk4 Jetta Coupe 4 Motion R32 Turbo build. A noble effort indeed. As Builder explains, to build a MK4 Jetta coupe, you must take the doors from a Golf three-door hatch (they're longer), move the B-pillar to accommodate the new portals, "then fill in the gap between the door and the rear quarter panel." Easy. ----------------------------------------------------- This video purpose is to tell world about amazin...
