Step 7: EGR Valve System Module Gasket Installation Note
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Lincoln LS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
Do not use metal scrapers, wire brushes, power abrasive discs, or other abrasive means to clean the sealing surfaces. These tools cause scratches and gouges which make leak paths. Use a plastic scraping tool to remove all traces of gasket material.
- Clean the EGR valve system module gasket mating surfaces. Install a new gasket.
