On my old EGR assembly, the electrical was fine, it was the EGR itself that was bad, leaking diaphragm?

At this point, if not anything else, I fixed a vacuum leak I didn't realize the truck had. I continue to be amazed how much better the truck idles and runs now. I thought it ran fine before, but, often at idle, it sounded 'blubbery' (is that a term?) It lacked a 'crispness' if you will.

Now that blubbery' sound is gone, and its smoother than it was before.

I did the on-off key test to pull codes, and it only showed '55'.

Thank you 360view for that lengthy response. beer

Mopar called the modulating valve the Transducer Vale. Many of the EGR/Transducer valve's also had the EGR solenoid made into the transducer valve. When you get a new EGR valve the transducer valve always came with it from Mopar. And even if it goes full vacum when it sees a problem it still needs the right exh back pressure before the EGR valve will open.Ron
