EGR valve block off

[chardo]

Hi Anth, I was just thinking about the radiator coolant maybe getting into the inlet manifold area. Once the 7mm hole blank plate goes in, this is removing a massive amount of the heat that would normally be cooled by the coolant. Is there any reason that the 2 coolant pipes couldn't be removed from the cooler and joined together. I suppose someone has thought of this earlier, but I would like to know for myself and if it has been tried before. Take care and cheers Bill. PS great work, great thread.

My dealership picked it up straight away in the notes the mechanic makes. A Provent & a bunch of other things probably prompted them to look further.

Amazing that they makes notes about this sort of thing, but never make records or provide anything in writing when they assure an owner that their injectors and everything else are fine just before the engine blows.

Would anyone by chance have a blanking plate for a hilux, or be able to tell me the measurements etc?
Thanks in advance

If you plan on making one. Remove the EGR gasket at the head and use it as your template.

Of search ebay for 1kd-ftv blanking plate. Remember the 7mm hole

5mm seems to be the go now.

7mm is proven with no CEL. 5mm has a chance and yes seems good with only 1 reported CEL

You must work for a miniscule hourly rate.

I just traced a gasket onto some scrap, drilled the holed and cut it out. Took about 10 minutes.

I am planning to install a 7 mm plate. I like to ask a question. Will the plate be the only thing between the cooler pipe and the engine block? Can the plate also perform as a gasket to prevent gas leakage? or I need to put in two gaskets on the two sides of the 7mm plate?

Thank you first.

Sorry for slow reply.
Yes correct, I have not done it yet, but good idea.

1, 2 or no gaskets will be fine. It's not a pressure area.
I use the gasket between head & plate, just leave it stuck to the head.

Has anyone on hear used the monster max or uni chip egr delete kit that you completely block the egr and plug a thing in that sorts the computer stuff out? I've been told they will work on all models but then I've also been told they only work on 05-06 models?

Yep, I do.

No need for 05-06 models as you can completely block the EGR without any fault code.

Just double checking this is correct I'm about to do new injectors and erg clean on my 05 lux so I can put a blanking plate in with no hole and will cause no fault codes and no issues?

[fourby4diesel]

I have heard of them throwing codes. I'd use 7mm to be 99.9% sure.

You should also check the compressions while doing the job, this tool can be used with any diesel comp tester.
Just screw in a 10x1.25 glow plug adaptor, clamp it in like an injector.
