ok i got a 95 gt and the guy b4 me put a set of headers on it with out the egr fitting and cut the pipe going to the valve and sqeezed it shut and the car is running rich i was woundering if i by one of the egr similator/elimunator plugs off ebay and take the egr off and put a plate where it used to be am i still going to be running rich? if so how can i fix this and if i take the egr off is it going to kill my gas milage

Thats prolly not egr related, check the codes first then get back to us! I have mine completely gone with the plug hanging free and i dont have a rich problem never had on any egr delete i have done! you could be sucking in extra unmetered air if its not a good crimp on the pipe that can cause you to run rich. yes i know extra air usually means lean but not always!

see thats the problem the cel comes on and goes off i have had it checked and never pulls a code but i do know its running really rich could it be the o2 sensors? and since the headers arent fitted for the egr valve and the pipe going to it has been cut should i just delete it

also on starts and when i get down on it it has a light blue cmoke but smells just like raw gas this is whats confusing me

Cap the headers and forget about the EGR. Hard to tell it's running rich without actually using a wideband. It could be something as simple as the car needing a tuneup

the headers do not have the fitting for the egr so they dont have to be capped i just changed the plugs and everything they were black and all u can smell is gas

Your good as far as the EGR goes then. They sell cheap block off plates on ebay for capping off the intake side. And like I said, standing behind the car and sniffing the tail pipe isn't the most scientific way to tell if you have a stoichiometric firing rate.

ok so just take it off and use the block off plate
