You have no idea how much it took ME to get where it is. But nice inference! I said THE more expensive way (read: about that subject... not ANY expensive way)
I've been blessed by how much I have in to the car, total.. Not so much that I can't afford to replace/repair my EGR the right way, but enough that I know I won't do anything half-assed on it. Do it right, do it once.
