EGR Valve

I am trying to find the EGR valve on my 91 CRX HF with the 1.5 FI. I am following the Haynes manual but I can't find the thing. I desperately need to clean this because my car will not run once it warms up. Please any help would be appreciated.

Re: EGR Valve

its the easiest thing to find and it's not under anything. i'm doing this from memory.. it should be behind the oil cap and distributer. when i say behind i mean go towards the back.. not down behind the engine. so its between the block and the fuel injectors. its this silver thing with 2 clips. and you can remove it by removing 2 bolts. its bolted to the fuel injector things just before air enters into the engine.

Re: EGR Valve

i don't see it.. it should be connected to the intake valve before it goes into the block to the far left but i don't see it... is it an automatic? i think they only come on automatics but i'm not sure.

No it's a 5 speed. This is driving me crazy. I am positive that the valve is the problem but I can't find it to fix. AHhh.

Re: EGR Valve

So the DX doesn't have an EGR ok. SOrry guys I don't know why I put HF. THanks for all your help. No it's not throwing the CEL. It runs fine until the engine warms up then it chokes itself out and doesn't want to start again. I've had the fuel sytem checked and all is supposed to be ok there. I thought for sure it would be the EGR valve. Oh well back to square 1.
