I read an old thread where Mark Malone had said that by deleting the EGR, the engine got worse fuel economy. It was suggested that with out the EGR cooler warming up the coolant, in cool weather, the engine ran colder and the fuel economy dropped. As we have cold winters, what about putting some copper tubing around the down pipe, covering it with pipe wrap, and using it instead of the EGR cooler. This way the coolant will get more heat input than the EGR cooler, and there will be no EGR in the intake to carbon it up. Anybody tried this? Thanks Stephen
