    Well, I must have the crappiest GP around. It can't go one week without something f'ed up on it. I replaced the O2 Sensor and one of the coil packs. That worked for a min. Got my sunroof settled (Thank You GP fellows). It started cutting out again every now and then. Went to AZone and it came back as the EGR valve. The guy told me it may be 10 degrees off?? (Computer said) He said it could be dirty. Tonight I looked on the google and it also said it may just have carbon built up to clean the intake. So, what do yall recommend? Be gentle (and cheap)

    10 degrees off?? umm not sure what you are referring to there, the EGR valve can only go on 1 way. You could have carbon build up, but I haven't seen to much of that with our engines. There are ways you can test the EGR valve.

    When was the last time a tune up was completed?
    3.4", 3" cated DP, SLP Air box, TB spacer, 180* Thermo, "Bilemke Tuning".

    Yeah, either it opens or not. That doesn't make sense.

    If it turns out you need one, I have several that you can have for just shipping.
