EGR Pipe & Valve

[w_hodel]

I have a 91 Dodge Stealth R/T NA with an A/T. I just finished replacing my lifters and I got my engine all put back together and my engine is sputtering, the idle is rough and it tries to stall. I noticed my EGR pipe is broken at the flexible section. Is this my problem? If not what else could it be? Also, does anyone know where to get an EGR pipe and valve, I have check the parts stores, and then resorted to the dealership, and none of them can get it for me, and I don't trust the ones from pick-n-pull, if mine split so easily so will those.

might be your timing is off. Get a hold of a timing lights and check.

1) did you plug the MAS sensor back in
2) could be EGR, boost leaks, plugs
3) I would think a crack in the EGR would throw a CEL, but perhaps not...anyway, one option, is to get EGR blockoff plates...not really legal for emissions, but they do cut down the time it takes to change spark plugs and keep your car cleaner. There is a section in the FAQ about this modification, and you can also buy the blockoff plates at www.3sxperformance.com under thier exhaust section for about $40. Lastly, if you do a search you can find more info on this.

4) Oh, you could also check www.thepartsbin.com to see if they have the stock replacement.

Yes the MAS is plugged in, thanks for the ideas, The block off set is for the turbo models, do you know where I can get the block off set for the non-turbo model? Also is that pipe able to be repaired (it broke at the flexible section, it split right in the crease) because I cannot find a pipe anywhere, not even the local 3S recyclers, if it can, how can I do that and still have it work, it is a little thin to weld I think. Thanks for all your advice so far.
