B-Tron Posted October 28, 2019 Report Share Posted October 28, 2019 Been trying to find an egr tube for my 1986 720 pickup 2.4l . Any ideas? Tried all the auTo parts places near me and salvage yards. Any help is appreciated Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 I think they are stainless steel, very brittle. I would try some 1/2" copper pipe and bend it to fit. The exhaust is very corrosive so I don't know how well it will hold up but it's cheap to make and can easily be replaced again or if you find one later. Quote Link to comment
B-Tron Posted October 29, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 Great idea. Was Wondering if I could just fab something that would work. Thanks! Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted October 29, 2019 Report Share Posted October 29, 2019 For bends, heat with propane torch anneal it then when cooled, refill with sand so it doesn't kink. Has to be one piece, no soldering. Steel would work, but harder to work with. This won't last as long but keep us posted on results. 2 Quote Link to comment
