Message	I had the EGR Deleted on my Z which lit the Check Engine light. A few other resistors were tried before I did more research and figured out that it had to be a 68k ohm resistor specifically to keep the Check Engine light off. This is already mentioned in robo's guide, but I just wanted to reiterate. :)
Follow Ups	Thinking about removing EGR - menace2society 15:13:33 02/21/09 Go ahead and do it, neither will be affected. (n/m) - Agner.S(CT) 15:18:20 02/21/09 Not sure if I was suppose to use "affect" or "effect". (n/m) - menace2society 15:20:52 02/21/09 . - zgene4 15:27:53 02/21/09 Affect is what you do. Effect is a result. That covers 95% (n/m) - BobbyT 01:54:55 02/22/09 Do it. The EGR does not effect "drivability" or "power." - robo (sebring1970) 15:31:10 02/21/09 Mine's out and I passed emissions just fine. (n/m) - PiotrC70 16:23:49 02/21/09 its risky in ca, esp if its tested on the rollers. (n/m) - not scared 01:57:37 02/22/09 In regards to removing the EGR and the check engine light - Polish 17:53:07 02/21/09 Won't matter on his 91 - Spddracer 18:39:39 02/21/09 I thought it was '95, '96 and all California ECU's threw - robo (sebring1970) 18:47:19 02/21/09 I believe that's correct. My car was an odd case though: - Polish 19:55:24 02/21/09 thanks. yeah, a '95 harness would leave a EGR temp sensor - robo (sebring1970) 08:57:33 02/22/09 The ECM turns the light on. - Spddracer 15:51:14 02/22/09 true that. Then I wonder what triggered his CEL light? - robo (sebring1970) 17:01:37 02/22/09 You could be right, I thought it was just 96 - Spddracer 21:44:00 02/21/09 ALL California spec cars have the EGR temp sensor 90-96 - Bernie (NoVA) 19:02:22 02/22/09 yup, definitely goes on, on 95s (n/m) - spyhunterTT(nj) 06:45:25 02/22/09 Not exactly true regarding the resistor. - 91Z32TT 04:46:45 02/22/09 *in series* - robo (sebring1970) 08:59:34 02/22/09 Anyone have experience w/ 96 EGR delete and SMOG?? - coolron300 09:09:54 02/22/09 Good info, thanks. (n/m) - Polish 16:08:30 02/22/09 chop it out. get rid of it. use the 300degree kit. (n/m) - nemo1080 (Iowa) 22:17:31 02/21/09 What about a >> 96 << model?? - MAD_96TT(MO) 04:29:56 02/22/09 all you should need is the resistor - robo (sebring1970) 09:01:02 02/22/09 thanks robo (n/m) - MAD_96TT(MO) 12:44:27 02/22/09 Oh...btw. I am going with the "ghetto" delete mentioned - MAD_96TT(MO) 13:43:43 02/22/09 that'll work, but ------------------------->>>> - robo (sebring1970) 14:36:56 02/22/09
