its a professionally rebuilt 318 with 3000 miles at most. the truck has like 89000 on it. i plugged the egr valve because i questioned if it was working and it ran fine plugged. a mechanic friend of mine said it would be fine and it is not needed. but im sure he could have been mistaken. still unsure. -- message posted via carkb.com http//www.carkb.com/uwe/forums.aspx/dodge-truck/200601/1 .

how many miles on it which engine why did you plug the egr this actually could be whole the problem if the egr is leaking exhaust into the intake at idle rpm. budd i have an 89 dodge ram. i put in a new engine computer injectors the works. i disconnected the egr valve and plugged the vacuum line going to it upon installing the new engine. ran fine for a year. now it idles fine sometimes but has occasional surges. have replaced distibuter cap sparkplugs and didnt help i have duel exhaust and it sounds like the drivers side is coughing sometimes. also there is no engine light on any help would be great. .
