egr problem
I have a 91 Metro LSI 3 cyl 5 speed. From CA, so has that EGR system.
Getting code 51 on ECM, which is EGR. Went thru Factory Manual trouble shooting: ECM is providing correct voltage to solonoid. Solonoid controls vacume with 12v. Modulator appears to work with pressure EGR moves with vacume. One place in manual says solonoid should be 120ohm, mine is 300ohm, which is what another place says it should be. Check Engine only comes on after fairly long drive, and sets the 51 code again. Any ideas what to check? I am in AZ, and really don't need the extra CA emissions stuff, but would not want to damage the engine by just blocking it off. Doesn't the EGR introduce exhaust gas to cool the mixture under heavy load? |

yeah, i burnt up a 3cyl engine head in 2 weeks by blocking off the EGR on it. Try spraying some de-carb up in the egr valve, and in the lines that go through the head. It could be all plugged up with carbon, and giving false readings to the ecu.
