EGR clean out tool - it worked

[urdrwho]

Tue metal tube that feeds the bottom of the BPT was clogged. It was clogged solid and nothing was getting through the carbon gunk. I had tried several different sprays in the tube but no go.

 

Finally I remembered how I cleaned the tube on my 95. Enclosed it a picture.

 

It is the bronzed wire from some of my used guitar strings. It was the D string .032 inches.

 

I cut a piece of the guitar string, installed the two cut ends into the drill, it left a loop on the other end. The loop acts like a butterfly drill. You have to squeeze the loop end to get it into the metal tube. I started the drill, went in and out a few times and it finally broke through the gunk. I used one of my smaller drills and didn't go crazy on the RPM's.

 

Worked well for me.
