Yes, the computer does know if the EGR isnt working. The EGR is the only smog device the computer keeps track of. On MAF cars, there is a temp sensor in the EGR valve. When the valve opens, it will get hotter. On MAP cars, the computer checks for a change in the MAP when the EGR opens.

Re: Deleting EGR

iam going to remove my egr too and was wondering if i can remove that whole setup just under the coil and just plug the vac line that goes to the tb, iam thinking that when the ecm tells the egr to open it gets its vacuum pressure from the connection at the tb once that swtich opens up under the coil? anyone help me out? thanx
