Look up the ORM. Unplug the connection on the air box.

The LOST search function ain't no :google:

I have heard rumors that Monica Lewinsky is thinking about filing a law suit against the LOST search function because it sucks so much :ROTFL: :ROTFL: :ROTFL: :ROTFL:

In fact you can find the posts faster by typing in the search key words into :google: and it will link you back to LOST. If you want to give that a try, type into :google: , "Acid Head Hippies". It will take you to the LOST link.

There is lots of information in the CRD Tech Section you should check out:
viewtopic.php?f=98&t=22631

If you need to go back in for warranty work, plug the MAF back in and do at least three restarts.

My EGR valve was getting stuck and causing a hesistation while driving and I unplugged the MAF on the airbox and the hesitation is gone. Yes I do have the CEL, but at least it runs so much better now. Much easier than deleting the EGR which I plan on doing with GDE tuning instead.

My oil seems cleaner with MAF ,OFM and suspect the motor will last a lot longer. Simple to do pull red lock near the air filter top housing and pull it out. Tape the open connections to keep clean. You must be newbie and I suggest spending few hours reading to keep your CRD lasting! Boost sensor needs a cleaning! You could order GDE computer reflash and kills the EGR in process which would mean better performance than stock CRD and higher mileage think run $650. HOW can I buy Extended Warranty with 105k?

My fiscal logic on the GDE tune SOLUTION to the EGR:

$200 ebay egr valve
$200 install said egr
-------
$400 = EGR failure cost, apparently a close to 100% failure rate

450-400= 50$ to recoup in saved fuel if you think the egr might only die once.

My fuel costs and tire costs are likely going to go up actually since I accept the fact that you have to pay to play :lol:

I personally, after having tuned my jeep, doubt I will be able to recoup that much fuel in regular driving since the 3-5MPG benefit assumes you have the restraint required to lift your foot back out of the now fun skinny pedal.

Now that on damp days I can get 4 wheel drift off a left turn launch.... and still get 20MPG in the city.... Could you take your foot out of it??
