What have you done to your square lately??
I replaced the EGR valve. It didn't hurt putting on a new one. After all electronic plugs that I moved for room to remove the valve were replaced I fired it up and took it on a test drive. The drive was positive. Uphill, downhill, slow, or fast no stumbles, except for one on a 10 minute trip... -

What have you done to your square lately??
It occurred to me to disconnect the negative cable for 5 minutes. I reconnected it and the truck cranked up and stayed on. -
What have you done to your square lately??
