Mixture Control Solenoid for Q-jet carbs......
 

Hey guys, I have a question about this unit. I believe mine is not functioning properly. MY 86 throws the SES light as Im sure alot of 3rd gens do, but I had it check and it threw 2 codes. One was for the Mixture Control Solenoid thats on top of the carb. It said to check the unit with an OHM meter and that anything below 10 ohms required replacement. Well it ohm'd out at about 20, so I furgured it should be good, but I keep getting the code, as well as another that I will have to look into.

Also how about EGR, I think that was the other code. I seem to get the SES light when I am cruising at about 65 for a little while, the light used to go on then off, but now it seems to stay on. I wanna say that its the EGR as I know it functiions at freeway speeds like this. Any input??? What are some symptoms of a bum egr??? Thanks guys
