That's the one I have, its a 3/8 drive but tiny...I think it has to do with the motor mount being shot and the engine must have dropped down to where the egr sits too close to the mount. I wonder if jacking up the engine would give clearance enough? I'm replacing 3 of the motor mounts, not sure I want to tackle that rear mount though...looks like a pain
Here, let me post this again. This is only way I found without taking apart a bunch of other stuff.................
Monkey hands and a 1/4 drive ratchet and some imagination to see what you are blindly doing in your head to remove egr. To replace you have to get one bolt in and swing the metal gasket and egr around to get 2nd bolt back in....again using imagination skills to blindly get bolt back in place.
I'll take tight access EGR removal over messin with rr motor mount any day............
Not looking forward to it based on what I've read,...
Hmmm good idea actually gonna try this...rtv sealant?
The stuff will run you almost 30 bucks from Autozone or Oreilly's. Plan ahead and get it from a body shop or Ebay.
I got some Transtar urethane for 12.99 from Oreilly's that I used for my passengers side mount. Gonna put it in now and see how it works.
Good tips, if the old ones are shot and missing half way how are you going to position the engine while filling it in?
The reason I ask is because my engine is low in the rear motor mount and filling it in would just keep it low (incorrect position). If you saw above I can not even get a socket around my egr valve because it hits the rear mount.
. The urethane takes a long time to cure, especially when layered thick in a motor mount.
