  Q: How to Remove and Install an EGR Tube in the Intake Manifold on Chrysler LHS?

  A:

  The EGR tube is mounted on the bottom of the intake manifold plenum right next to the Throttle Body. Disconnect the cable connected to the negative terminal of the battery and take out the air inlet tube as well as the resonator. Then, disconnect both EGR tube mounting clips from the intake manifold, release the transmission to throttle body bracket and remove the three screws holding the bracket to the studs. Lift off the EGR upper tube assembly and take care not to lose the silicone rubber seals when removing the mounting screws at the EGR Valve. Make sure to wipe the gasket portion of the EGR valve, because unwanted dirt can lead to it leaking, giving you an uneven idling and less vacuum in the exhaust. After getting rid of the EGR tube, put on new rubber silicone seals at the intake manifold side, checking they aren't damaged or wrongly positioned. Install a fresh gasket on the EGR tube, put it loosely into the intake manifold and secure it loosely on the EGR valve. Afterwards, fasten the EGR tube to the EGR valve screws to 11 Nm (95 in. lbs.) torque in the final step. After that, join the clips for the EGR tube on the intake manifold, secure the transmission to its bracket, connect the air inlet tube and resonator and reconnect the negative battery cable.

  Q: How to Locate and Replace an EGR Tube on Chrysler LHS?

  A:

  The EGR tube is installed beneath the intake manifold plenum, right next to the Throttle Body. Let's begin with taking off the negative Battery Cable and getting rid of the air inlet tube and resonator. After that, undo the mounting clips at the EGR tube on the intake manifold, remove the bolts and nuts under the transmission to throttle body bracket and detach the bracket from its studs. After unfastening the screws from the EGR mount, make sure the rubber seals don't fall into the intake manifold while you remove the EGR upper tube assembly. Keep the gasket surfaces in the EGR Valve free from foreign material, because some pollution can often result in a leaky valve and a rough idle. Lay the rubber silicone seals on the end of the EGR tube on the intake manifold so that they are properly mounted and not harmed. Use a fresh gasket, slightly lower the EGR tube onto the intake manifold and connect it loosely to the EGR valve. Use a torque wrench and tighten the EGR tube to EGR valve screws until you feel 11 Nm (95 in. lbs.) of force, then clip the EGR tube to the intake manifold plenum. Next, join the transmission to the throttle body bracket, then guide the air inlet tube and resonator into place, before reconnecting the car battery's negative lead.
