I had the "engine" light come on about 6 months ago. I had Autozone check the code. It came up "EGR valve insufficiant flow" or something close to that. I bought an EGR vavle factory direct off of ebay and put it in. I cleared the code (disconnect battery). But after driving a few miles the light came on again. I had autozone check it again and it came back the same. What am I missing? It is just a plug and 2 bolts.

The problem isn't the EGR valve, it is the loss of flow caused by restricted EGR passages. This is not a job you are going to undertake. It isn't that big a deal, but it is certainly difficult, and unless you have experience and a flexible "snake-bit" for clearing the passages, it will save you money, effort, time and frustration to have either HONDA dealer, or a Honda specialist do this repair.
Good Luck

You need a battery. After you install the new battery, start the engine, and put a voltmeter across the terminals, if it reads less than 13 volts you need an alternator.

Just a useless sensor. just put your key in the slot that you can find by your speedometer.
