Home made plates.

Coke tin? Use the tin to drink the Coke Smile
I wouldn't use that for egr blanking.
Use at least 4mm steel plate if you are doing it yourself and not buying a kit from eBay.

Have you bridged the water pipes that go to the cooler? The water jacket in the cooler can leak into the exhaust giving similar symptoms to a failed head.

Hi,

Not yet, it's on my "to do" list Smile
Thank you for the reminder.
Is there any specific hose that can be bought for that?

15 years back I blanked my egrv with a thin "tin plate", but was it a coke can or a jam tin, can't remember ?  Rolling Eyes

It worked for some years, there's little pressure and not much corrosion in that area, only a pin hole in it by then.

I replaced it with a 2 mm plate a couple of years back,  can't remember if that plate came from a battle tank or a destroyer,.Laughing

If it was me I would probably use a length of copper water pipe. As that is what I have lying around.

Thank you to all those who smiled at my simple piece of humor.   Laughing

By the way, I didn't remove the egrv, I sandwiched the blanking plate between the manifold and the valve. And plugged the vacuum pipe too.

Looks original and neat.

I know it's an option, but if it is not working, I prefer it won't be there, less hoses - the better Very Happy
