Can Am Renegade 500 stock exhaust mod
This is the stock exhaust , I plan on upgrading soon but in the mean time I removed the exhaust tip, drilled holes around the spark arrestor and put the tip back on. If you plan on doing the same , do it with the engine running so you can determine how loud you want it and to let the metal shavings blow out of the exhaust.

EGR valve cleaning (Saturn sl1)
Переглядів 17 тис.8 років тому
I wanted to make a short and to the point demonstration on how to clean up your EGR valve , I apologize for some of the camera quality (phone is a p.o.s. ) hope it helps ! There's several different ways of doing it , this is just the simple way to touch it up .
The code is 404 the e g r valve
I can’t believe you have only 66 likes on this video, after cleaning up my EGR valve it still gave me the same code and after watching your video I found out that my plunger was stuck on the EGR valve
Glad you got it figured out !
(1998 saturn sl) I replaced the egr valve with a new one and new gasket and the dash light came back on. Thoughts?
What have you done to it?
It's 100% factory other than the exhaust being drilled out .
Good stuff. Easy fix.
Good clip, thanks for sharing man. Is this the SL1 SOHC engine? Were u able to reuse the gasket or did u have to replace it? How much $$ does the gasket go for? thanks again, take care from TN.
It is the sohc. I reused the old gasket if my memory serves me well !
@@dansmith73 Seen any video clips on replacing valve stem seals on these engines?
I haven't actually although, I'm sure there's one out there. Shouldn't be too much different than any other valve seal, I wouldn't think.
Egr valve replacement comes with a new gasket or you can often reuse the old if its solid shape and not broken. Tight the bolts firmly not too tough and you will be fine. Clear the codes and rerun drive cycles. It should stay clear if you used wire brushes to clean the carbon of the valve and ports
did you need to put a new gasket on that thing or just put it back on?
Brett Boutan if I remember correctly, it had a silver gasket that I peeled off and reused .
On these older S series Saturn's the EGR getting clogged up and the throttle body clogging with carbon are common issues, If your going to own one go ahead and learn how to fix these two issues, its not hard and with youtube it's even easier. Also expect your belt tensioner to break at some point and the trailing arms go bad going to the back wheels. Keep an eye on your antifreeze because at some point the plastic piece at the top of your radiator will leak slowly since it's plastic so refill it or replace it with a new radiator. And lastly if you own one of these cars change your motor oil regularly and change your transmission fluid atleast every 50k because the way Saturns are made they need that fluid change. Chow! No wait also replace your temperature control sensor because it's plastic on top and WILL go bad. Ok I'm done - Proud owner of a 1996 Saturn and two 1999 Saturns
I wish I had found your comment last year... Owner of a used '96 saturn and all of the above happened to me (except belt tensioner, I'm getting on that now)
Forgot the plastic intake manifold and how the water inlet cracks :F
Cool thanx!
Nice one, you turned 40, bought a bike and got out of your basement ;) now move outta your parents house and give them some peace ffs!!
