    These SOBs get so carbonated so fast it's sick. I have a spare that is quite crusty and am considering literally tearing it apart to see just HOW thorough we can get when cleaning them and the ease of it (or lack of).

    I believe I am on my 3rd.

    Is yours an oil burner??

    That would clog up the EGR pretty quick.

    It would be interesting to see if there is a direct correlation between clogged EGR's and oil usage.

    Mine doesn't burn oil, and EGR has never been off the motor that I know of.
