lmp----thanks for the reply....down in south GA there is no such thing as an EPA test, it seems the more smoke you having coming out the tailpipe the better off you are, if you know what i mean...lol....i will give that idea a thought (of blocking the ports off) but will probably have the whole thing replaced just for sound of mind and performance wise (rough/low idling) for the car......thanks also for reformatting the erg valve pic.....that helped out a lot and came through much better and i was able to print it out....thanks for all your input.....i am new to the automotive forums web site and your help has been much appreciated.....ill keep you posted and keep asking questions as the need arises....hopefully there wont be too many more questions to arise but from the looks of the forum there is a lot of quirks with these types of cars......i feel i have a lucky one that maybe came out right along production somewhere! ha!....happy holidays and thanks once again from 'ole south Georgia!.....
