I am going to be cleaning out my EGR ports this weekend and I wanted to get a gasket and the plugs.

There are 2 gaskets listed for the EGR

18715-PB2-000 GASKET, EGR VALVE $4.56
18715-P45-G01 GASKET, EGR VALVE (NIPPON LEAKLESS) $5.46

anyone know the differences between the 2?


I have read while researching cleaning out the EGR ports that the new plugs are domed, unlke the ones that come with the are flat.

Is this a big deal? or is there anything that one would need to know about the newer domed ones prior to instalation? did they change them to facilitate removing them since from what i have read so far, is going to be a somewhat regular process....


Thanks!

 

I know that the EGR topic has been beat to death, but in the searching that I have done over the past few days, but I havent seen anything about the 2 different gaskets......

cmon guys! Id really like to have the right gasket, trying to do it this weekend.

 

Just to let you guys know, the Nippon leakless gasket needed to be ordered and i did not spend the extra $6.00 to find out what it is.

The newer plugs go in easy, not sure on how easy they are going to be to get out. From what I could tell you need that extra meat on the plug for the slide hammer to bite into.


EGR is a dirty dirty place.
