I bought a '91 Eagle Talon a few weeks ago and now my check engine light cam on. I ran the codes and come to find out its the Oxygen sensor and an EGR. What is an EGR? and how can i fix it quickly? thanx

 

EGR= Exhaust Gas Recirculation. EGR valve is located on the intake manifold. It is held in place by 2 bolts and has 1 vacuum line running to it. Shouldn't take you more than 5-10 minutes to replace. The O2 sensor will require a special socket to remove and install. Also shouldn't take more than 5-10 minutes to accomplish.

 

If its a modded car then those codes are normal. Some people block off the egr valve b/c it puts hot exaust gas into the intake. The o2 sensor... it depends on which one is failing. If its the rear it may be because the cayt has been romoved.

 

Good point I hadn't thought abuot that.
