might as well state the symptoms of the car. Car runs fine but when you come to a stop the car turns off. It is throwing a code for the egr valve. I talked to a mechanic and he said when the egr valve is actually turning the car off it generally means it is stuck open. I can not find any information about the egr valve for a d16y8 online at all. im very confused again any help is much appricated.

They didn't. The only '92 - '00 D-series engines that have an EGR valve are the D15Z1 and the D16Y5.
