Default to all those fearing egr port cleaning

I just finished my wifes and it took a total of about 45 minutes. The instructions i was given on here said to remove the 4 plugs but our car must have a different year motor as there were no plugs, I just drilled and tapped the intake runners. 3 of the 4 egr ports were plugged solid... i ran a small drill bit through them and then shot a whole can of carb cleaner through the 4 ports. I finished by blowing compressed air into the holes i drilled and installed 4, 5/16 bolts with thread sealant into the holes i drilled and tapped. Simple repair with no special tools required and now she owes me 500 dollars (what i was quoted to have this done) worth of something

This is actually already in the Accord FAQ.

don't you hate it when you think you have an original idea and someone else has already done it?

Actually, i was following up on another post of mine where i was directed on how to do this so i'm not taking credit at all. There was some talk about how hard it was and i was just posting that it was a very easy and straight forward project.
