EGR

[Ford Builder]

I have question I have removed my EGR and blocked of the port , will have problem with engine functions with being removed ?? I removed it for the reason it was leaking , it seams to run fine with out it but was wondering if the computer needs it in the system ?

It is only used at some part-throttle conditions. You will definitely have higher chamber temps (and EGT) in the operating ranges where it is programmed to function, compared to a properly installed and working EGR system.

You may see some increased part-throttle detonation and increase fuel consumption without the EGR working with stock EEC values.
