took the vehicle in again, put on computer, the same problem noted on the computer with the egr valve, then #4 cyclinder misfiring, replaced the spark plug, engine light went off for 20 miles, ran rough, put a bolt in to disconnect the valve, ran much better, replaced the egr valve again as was told it was the spring, service engine light off for 10 miles, ran rough, put the bolt in again. Better gas mileage with the bolt in the valve, but service engine light still on. Took to another mechanic, computer says the same, he hooked up the valve, admitted it that it ran rough, thought there was an air leak in the valve, clamped that, as tack was now jumping around, and couldn't hardly keep the vehicle running when slowing down for stop lights. Vehicle runs fine, took it back, had the mechanics hook the valve back on, clear the computer, vehicle ran terrible, service engine light came back on after 2 miles. Put the bolt back on, service engine light on, vehicle runs okay. Any ideas?
