Default Best place to purchase an EGR Valve?

First time posting, go easy on me.

I just purchased my 91 EX Accord and it didn't pass smog due to high nox readings. Most likely the EGR according to the smog place and my old auto teacher who sold me the car. Went to the dealer, 200$. I paid 1300 for the car, dont feel like spending another 200 on an EGR. It runs strong, so i really dont want to spend that much money on it, it is only my DD.

Anyhow, does this site have any forum sponsers or venders? Couldn't locate any and search didn't help either.

Also, would buying a used one do any me any good? Was thinking of posting in classifieds for one. Thnx

Try your local auto parts store...if you want oem

http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com (not as expensive as dealer )

Your high NOx could also be due to a clogged cat, I would run some fuel systems cleaner through her as well (bg44k).

Welcome to h-t

Try http://www.HondaAutomotiveParts.com for new OEM parts. Also http://www.TASAuto.com is a good site for 94+ Accord OEM and aftermacket parts.

If your going to buy a used one then you might have better luck trying to find one in a junk yard. If you want to post in the Classifieds then you will need to wait until your a full member and not a trial user.

edit:
damn, you beat me to it. Also, keep in mind that even though Majestic (HondaAutomotiveParts) might be cheaper, you get charge handling fees. Combine that with shipping fees and the week wait and it sometimes is easier to go to the local dealer. I basically only use Majestic if I have a large order.
