I have an 1986 iroc z and i swapped the 305 engine out for a 1988 Corvette aluminum head 350 with a LT1 cam and 1.6 self aligning rockers. I deleted the smog pump as well as the air tubes and capped them off. I want to delete the egr but not knowledgeable with doing a computer tune like you did in this video. How can i get that done?
For the record for other motorist, you can use this same egr delete block plate on your 260/307/403 oldsmobile V8 engines. I am doing a complete smog pump and egr delete on my 1989 cadillac brougham with the olds 307 and could not find the egr plate any where online or at any parts store, but by comparing egr gasket applications fitment PRESTO, I discovered the L98 sbc interchanges. This is valuable information guys because even mondello olds idiots dont know this
WELL done video- no fluff, nice pace and good info. Bravo, sir. 99.9% of videos on car repairs on youtube suck badly. Previous owner removed all the EGR wiring and vac lines on mine with the valve still there. Runs ok, no codes but I don't think it was tuned for it. Going to dig around and do it right. Too bad nobody anywhere near me can burn a chip- can you burn a chip for me?
Kinda feeling I may be a tad late, but what is needed to burn the new config on the ecm? Except for a laptop. Got a bunch of info that actually got me pretty confused. Do I need a specific defintion? Will TunerPro will be enough, or I need the RT? How did you connect the laptop to the ecm? Many thanks
Removing the EGR properly will increase horsepower with the combined removals of the catalytic converter, exhaust gas recycler and smog pump. On the T.P.I L98's you can also remove the metal lines attached to the exhaust manifolds at this point and block the holes or just get new shorty's. This will destroy your gas mileage and is illegal on street cars. Luckily these cars are classics now and do not need to pass emissions at least in the state of Washington.

I know it's an old video but maybe someone can answer something for me, what do you do with the solenoid plug to the ecm? Does the tune take care of it being unplugged from the solenoid?
Nice work! Who can burn the chips. I am a computer engineer but I don't anything about burning chip. Is it cheaper to send it off and have the EGR and VATS killed? or can a computer smart person buy a low cost burner and do this?
Need to revise timing curve to compensate for increased combution chamber temp. EGR lowers chamber about 300deg You likely will now notice some "pinging" as you accelerate at mid range. Deleting EGR not good idea without other system adjustments.
Removing the EGR is not as simple as this video shows. There two timing tables in the ECM program EGR On and EGR Off. Running without the EGR function with the more aggressive values in the EGR On table can cause a burnt valve. The values can be changed and the EGR function disabled but for maximum power and safe operation, a new timing table must be put together and loaded into the ECM program.
I had a 1981 Toyota pick up that had a carburetor and a thousand vacuum lines. I blocked off the EGR on it and gained a lot more power, well a lot more power relative to the very small amount of power that the ( POS) 22 R Toyota motor put out.
Hi I have a question it doesn't regard your video but I have to add that I really highly respect a lot of your videos and work they have taught me a lot my question is I have a l98 engine with the TPI setup and I'm trying to find out who can make me or what are the sizes that I need to know when it comes to the TPI fuel hoses if you can help me I highly appreciate it

noce, I just got me a 92 rs, wen I floor it, the car bogs down, I noticed this is usually in 3rd gens, any help ? could be fuel pump,filter, plugs etc ?
+Jay Alvarez Just got it? start with a complete tune up, plugs, wires, cap rotor, air filter, fuel filter and oil change. Then start to diagnose from there
You don't want to remove the EGR valve because it cools the engine when it's hot. It recirculates the exhaust gas and cools the combustion chamber. Without it, the valves can burn.
klowny1969 But still, it would keep the engine cooler. With a/c, the engine runs hotter. In the long run, valves burn. But, EGR valves stick open. They either run off of vacuum or a PVS or the EGR temp. sensor. You want it to open at the right time. At full-throttle, it might close because the vacuum is low. There's a delay valve you could install.
In all actuality..the egr contaminates the intake charge..best thing to do is to get rid of it..I'm not sure you know anything about me..check out my other videos on my channel..I dont mess with stock stuff
If you blocked off the EGR ports and just left the hose uncapped, it would throw a code obviously. But since you capped off the hose, why would it still throw a code? Wouldnt it still think that an EGR was still connected and therefore throw no code?
The ECU checks for a small variation in engine speed when the EGR is activated and if that variation is absent the ECU will throw a code that says that the EGR system doesn´t work. But this would of course not happen if the ECU never even tries to activate the EGR, as in the video where Klowny deactivates the EGR in the ECU software.
@@klowny1969 I have -service engine soon - while driving after 120 Km with thick black smoke and fuel rich , can u help me broo with the might couses ?
I got intermittent egr code after starting the car up. I checked egr valve itself and its clean and not ripped (stays open when I block the egr pin hole). Car passed smog check. I don't think that I have vacuum leak (hoses and new and connected properly). What ca cause that intermittent code? tnx
+Vladymyr Koval if the car is a thirdgen then its possible either the solenoid isnt working sometimes or the egr could be sticking sometimes..thanks for watching
Only GM would engineer so much fail in one place: unnecessarily convoluted, multi-piece intake. Then, above all, they put a coolant crossover at the throttle body
Recently bought a 87 GTA. I threw all new sensors at it. Due to the set light does not work in the car. Dome buffoon cut the wires. But the car keeps falling on it's face when I come to a complete stop or a light. I assume stuck open egr. Due to the simtoms. New tps set at .54 new iac set. New collant temp sensor. New fuel filter. Also fuel pressure test at 45 psi. New maf. This is the last thing I hope fixes it. Any others that could make it fall on it's face.
I miss my 88 L98 IROC-Z. Never should have sold it. Now, my hot rod is a 06 5.3 Monte Carlo SS. The monte is much faster, but that is about it. The IROC did everything else so much better.
@@klowny1969 I see, mine are pretty thick and hard, and I guess I've been lucky, pulled it apart a couple times already, I had to replace the fuel injectors.
i bypassed it when i installed the holley stealth ram on this vehicle..check out that video you will probably like it..thanks for watching and commenting
I’m guessing I would have to have the computer tuned on my obd2 lt1 someone took off the air pump egr the solenoid and purge valve, the car was running at 14.1 and would climb up to 14.7 but I put the egr back on with the solenoid and every start up it’s at 14.7 now the air pump was taken off due to custom headers put on the car
Ok really stupid question, why? I have a basic concept, the intake is cooler and there's "garbage" exhaust going into the combustion chambers and better performance. Does it affect fuel economy? I know this is going to seem really stupid to a lot of you and I am not asking to be a jerk or start a argument or make anyone mad, I'm new at this and I don't know more than I know and I'd really like too start on a project car.
very easy..cut the line plug it..then discard the check valve and put a little filter on it..ill do a vid when i can..thanks for watching and commenting
Hey chief Ik this has nothing to do with this video but really like the way explain shit, anyways looked all around on the forums and all for the fuel sending unit, I changed mine out but didn't realize how it was sitting in there. Now installed and tank in place my fuel gauge is on 1/4 even when I went to go fill it up. Previously before changing it the float was working fine. Maybe u have advice or a link . Get at me if you can help me out .
guys I would appreciate it if someone would help me out I have an 86 Camaro with a 305 I'm going to get the motor rebuilt what is the best parts so I can get more horsepower I would like to keep the same motor instead of switching to a 350 or 383 it's not a race cars it's going to be a street car
I've read that the problem with a 305 is that the heads flow so badly, among other things. And that you'd save a lot of time and money by just picking up any old 350... I have an 84 Tran Am (owned it since 86) that's locked up, and it was always a dog power wise, compared to the 84 Mustang GT I traded in on it. It only has 137k on it, but it had a blown head gasket, and would lose coolant pressure when it was shut off (could hear it bubbling up). Didn't know that's what it was at the time, but it seized one morning after about half a crank over. And has been that way since 96.. lol It's such a beautiful car that I never junked it (Black n Gold with T Tops). Point is, that I'm planning to get it out of it's decades long corner of my shop soon, and IF I can make that 305 run again with a new set of rings (and carb rebuild, etc.), I may will stay with that 305. But most likely I will replace it with the LT1 currently in my 93 Vette (when I find a good LS for it). And I would only keep it because at this point I seem the get the most satisfaction by far, from making something out of nothing (aka, what I have on hand). So yea I can see working with what you have, but not past what it would cost you in money, time and trouble by going a "better" route..
Dump the 305, get a crate 350 motor from a reputable Co or builder, if you've never rebuilt engines before this is not the time to learn, a good crate motor will come with a warranty, Im a mechanic.
Im thinking about deleting all the emissions bs on my 84 camaro have you done this yet and if so did you use an air pump delete pully?. And did you plug off the manifolds??

Classic cars are exempt from emission laws
Not true. Its completely dependent on where you live and what came from the factory stock.
Removing the EGR properly will increase horsepower with the combined removals of the catalytic converter, exhaust gas recycler and smog pump. On the T.P.I L98's you can also remove the metal lines attached to the exhaust manifolds at this point and block the holes or just get new shorty's. This will destroy your gas mileage and is illegal on street cars. Luckily these cars are classics now and do not need to pass emissions at least in the state of Washington.

Removing the EGR is not as simple as this video shows. There two timing tables in the ECM program EGR On and EGR Off. Running without the EGR function with the more aggressive values in the EGR On table can cause a burnt valve. The values can be changed and the EGR function disabled but for maximum power and safe operation, a new timing table must be put together and loaded into the ECM program.
Yep. A good way to hurt your engine and/or performance on the freeway at part throttle acceleration.

You don't want to remove the EGR valve because it cools the engine when it's hot. It recirculates the exhaust gas and cools the combustion chamber. Without it, the valves can burn.
Marty Stevens this is true..for a stock engine..I dont do stock
klowny1969 But still, it would keep the engine cooler. With a/c, the engine runs hotter. In the long run, valves burn. But, EGR valves stick open. They either run off of vacuum or a PVS or the EGR temp. sensor. You want it to open at the right time. At full-throttle, it might close because the vacuum is low. There's a delay valve you could install.
In all actuality..the egr contaminates the intake charge..best thing to do is to get rid of it..I'm not sure you know anything about me..check out my other videos on my channel..I dont mess with stock stuff
klowny1969 I understand about EGR's and the trouble they cause. On HP, you might want to eliminate it because of valve overlap.
If you blocked off the EGR ports and just left the hose uncapped, it would throw a code obviously. But since you capped off the hose, why would it still throw a code? Wouldnt it still think that an EGR was still connected and therefore throw no code?
The ECU checks for a small variation in engine speed when the EGR is activated and if that variation is absent the ECU will throw a code that says that the EGR system doesn´t work.
But this would of course not happen if the ECU never even tries to activate the EGR, as in the video where Klowny deactivates the EGR in the ECU software.
Good clean work.
+panic mike Thank you
Your welcome
So u plugged in the computer to an obs1 deal i dont know what you mean by burn a chip
Save the new program to the chip..don't forget to subscribe 😉
Nice 👍🏽 I have the same floor mats in my blue 85 z28.
Will this work on a 91 vette
Can I delete EGR without doing that laptop and computer work 13:55 + 14:50 ? :(
You will get a check engine light
@@klowny1969 I have -service engine soon - while driving after 120 Km with thick black smoke and fuel rich , can u help me broo with the might couses ?
@@FaisalAhmed-kf9yf did you check your codes?
@@klowny1969 Yeh , Show nothing :(
>It'll never reach 255MPH
I know it's unreasonable, especially for a TPI, but I can't help but hear that as a challenge.
I got intermittent egr code after starting the car up. I checked egr valve itself and its clean and not ripped (stays open when I block the egr pin hole). Car passed smog check. I don't think that I have vacuum leak (hoses and new and connected properly). What ca cause that intermittent code? tnx
+Vladymyr Koval if the car is a thirdgen then its possible either the solenoid isnt working sometimes or the egr could be sticking sometimes..thanks for watching
+klowny1969 thanks for the reply ill check it out, car is 1988 gta 350
+Vladymyr Koval np
Code 32? Either a bad EGR temperature switch or clogged passages. The latter is more likely.
do you also have the subfrAme connectors?
This was a customers car..but yes he has them
Only GM would engineer so much fail in one place: unnecessarily convoluted, multi-piece intake. Then, above all, they put a coolant crossover at the throttle body
Recently bought a 87 GTA. I threw all new sensors at it. Due to the set light does not work in the car. Dome buffoon cut the wires. But the car keeps falling on it's face when I come to a complete stop or a light. I assume stuck open egr. Due to the simtoms. New tps set at .54 new iac set. New collant temp sensor. New fuel filter. Also fuel pressure test at 45 psi. New maf. This is the last thing I hope fixes it. Any others that could make it fall on it's face.
Ses light.*
Rays Camaro Rs. Clean the throttle body if u haven't already..could also be a bad maf if ur car is maf, u can also try cleaning that as well
Try reading your check engine light
I miss my 88 L98 IROC-Z. Never should have sold it. Now, my hot rod is a 06 5.3 Monte Carlo SS. The monte is much faster, but that is about it. The IROC did everything else so much better.
lol thanks for watching
why change the tpi gaskets, they looked fine?
because sometimes they rip..i dont remember if this car they ripped or not..i work on tons of cars..cant remember
@@klowny1969 I see, mine are pretty thick and hard, and I guess I've been lucky, pulled it apart a couple times already, I had to replace the fuel injectors.
cool..yeah, usually you should put gasket sealer on them to guarantee a leak proof seal..and that tears the gaskets
Great video! Have you considered the TB coolant bypass trick?
i bypassed it when i installed the holley stealth ram on this vehicle..check out that video you will probably like it..thanks for watching and commenting
what is the benefits to deleting the EGR
Less stuff to go wrong..cleaner charge..can tune it for more power
what does the EGR actually do ?
Nice video!
I WONDER HOW DID IT FIRE UP & RUN??? ALSO APPROX. HOW MUCH FOR TUNER PRO TUNING OR CHIP BURNING?
I’m guessing I would have to have the computer tuned on my obd2 lt1 someone took off the air pump egr the solenoid and purge valve, the car was running at 14.1 and would climb up to 14.7 but I put the egr back on with the solenoid and every start up it’s at 14.7 now the air pump was taken off due to custom headers put on the car
what the benefits from egr delete?
Jose Cardenas less contaminants in combustion
85-92 tpi* lol great video man
+Samuel Garfunkel yeah thats right lol..thanks for watching
Ok really stupid question, why? I have a basic concept, the intake is cooler and there's "garbage" exhaust going into the combustion chambers and better performance. Does it affect fuel economy? I know this is going to seem really stupid to a lot of you and I am not asking to be a jerk or start a argument or make anyone mad, I'm new at this and I don't know more than I know and I'd really like too start on a project car.
can we do a charcoal canister delete?
very easy..cut the line plug it..then discard the check valve and put a little filter on it..ill do a vid when i can..thanks for watching and commenting
Hey chief Ik this has nothing to do with this video but really like the way explain shit, anyways looked all around on the forums and all for the fuel sending unit, I changed mine out but didn't realize how it was sitting in there. Now installed and tank in place my fuel gauge is on 1/4 even when I went to go fill it up. Previously before changing it the float was working fine. Maybe u have advice or a link . Get at me if you can help me out .
Maybe the float in the fuel sending unit is trapped or stuck in some way?
what is the part number on the solenoid and switch
guys I would appreciate it if someone would help me out I have an 86 Camaro with a 305 I'm going to get the motor rebuilt what is the best parts so I can get more horsepower I would like to keep the same motor instead of switching to a 350 or 383 it's not a race cars it's going to be a street car
I've read that the problem with a 305 is that the heads flow so badly, among other things. And that you'd save a lot of time and money by just picking up any old 350... I have an 84 Tran Am (owned it since 86) that's locked up, and it was always a dog power wise, compared to the 84 Mustang GT I traded in on it. It only has 137k on it, but it had a blown head gasket, and would lose coolant pressure when it was shut off (could hear it bubbling up). Didn't know that's what it was at the time, but it seized one morning after about half a crank over. And has been that way since 96.. lol It's such a beautiful car that I never junked it (Black n Gold with T Tops). Point is, that I'm planning to get it out of it's decades long corner of my shop soon, and IF I can make that 305 run again with a new set of rings (and carb rebuild, etc.), I may will stay with that 305. But most likely I will replace it with the LT1 currently in my 93 Vette (when I find a good LS for it). And I would only keep it because at this point I seem the get the most satisfaction by far, from making something out of nothing (aka, what I have on hand). So yea I can see working with what you have, but not past what it would cost you in money, time and trouble by going a "better" route..
Dump the 305, get a crate 350 motor from a reputable Co or builder, if you've never rebuilt engines before this is not the time to learn, a good crate motor will come with a warranty, Im a mechanic.
what is the name of that program u use
Mickey Bass tunerpro
How can I get chip burning software
can any please tell what is the use of that ?
Cleaner combustion..and less things that can go bad
What’s the purpose of the sensor at 6:30
Under the intake
I have a 91 Corvette it is the Ambient Air Temperature Sensor
Need help was going 255mph and EGR came on lost the race what do i do 😰
You need more horsepower
Do away with the O2 sensors if you got headers big Improvement hoorah
Could of sold that EGR Temp sensor for about $100. Damn.
MY FIRST THOUGHT. ALSO WHY CUT THE WIRE THAT DAMN SHORT? NOW NO GOOD TO ANYONE CAN'T EVEN SPLICE. WOW!!!
I need eprom chip burned can you help
POP THAT BITCH IN !! Lol 👍 Nice job keep up the good work .!!!
OHIOMANUSMC lol thank u
Reroute the coolant away from the TB while you’re at it, it’s pointless and heats up your intake.
Glad i got a carb
Hater Annihilator lol
Im thinking about deleting all the emissions bs on my 84 camaro have you done this yet and if so did you use an air pump delete pully?. And did you plug off the manifolds??
Hater Annihilator yes..easy to do..get the delete pulley and cut all the air injection stuff and weld them shut
I just want all that crap gone and jw is that the tekton torque wrench?.
Harbor freight torque wrench..car craft found it to be very close to snapon torque wrenches
Hi. Could u please do a intake manifold removal and install video please? Maybe you can replace your intake gaskets. :)
Sincerely.
+amrix15mag here is a video where i changed the intake manifold gasket on a 350 vortec v8 engine: ua-cam.com/video/dBuPzmTr9-Y/v-deo.html
i also have part two on my channel..thanks
Hi again. Do you have a video on changing or removing the intake manifold on a camaro tpi engine z28 or iroc z? I have tpi 305 engine and I want to upgrade and change gaskets. Sincerely.
