How do I Remove an EGR on a CRX HF?

Removing the EGR valve on the CRX HF engine is a fairly simple job that you can do in about 15 minutes. The exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve is designed to send burnt emissions gases back through the engine to be burned off a second time, reducing the emissions sent from the exhaust pipe. The EGR valve is a cylindrical metal part that is connected to the intake manifold with a vacuum hose attached.

Things You'll Need

• Small screwdriver
• Socket wrench set

Instructions

1. Open the hood of the Honda CRX HF and locate the EGR valve near the center of the firewall in back of the intake manifold.

2. Unfasten the electrical wiring connector on the top of the CRX HF EGR valve, lifting the clip with a small screwdriver and unplugging the connector.

3. Disconnect the rubber vacuum hose from the top of the EGR valve by hand.

4. Loosen the bolts that secure the EGR valve to the intake manifold with a socket wrench.

5. Remove the EGR valve from the CRX HF engine compartment.

Tips & Warnings

• Let the CRX HF engine cool before attempting to remove the EGR valve to avoid burns.
