    LLY: No Power Black Smoke at Random

    I unplugged the EGR and it has stopped bogging down at red lights, my idle is slightly off, but It's for sure the EGR in that is causing the Low power and Black smoke from a stop!

    LLY: No Power Black Smoke at Random

    I think the whole thing would come out easy, the hardest part I foresee is taking the bolts out of the up pipe, with my truck being pretty old, * it has survived 13 years of brutal northern Canadian winters* it has some lovely natures lock tight on it. Wonder if there is some kind of trick.

    LLY: No Power Black Smoke at Random

    I live in Ontario Canada, I doubt that I would ever get caught, they usually don't pull over regular trucks, just big rigs, and because I live in Northern Ontario they don't do emission testing here yet, but a couple hours south they do.

    The only downfall with entire removal, is if I'm ever pulled over for road inspection by the ministry of transportation, I will be in some trouble lol

    LLY: No Power Black Smoke at Random

    I have read that there are a few people that just use the blocker plate on the up pipe, and have had good results, I just unplugged my EGR last night to see if it would help, so far i didn't die on the road today, weird thing is it didn't set any codes or CEL.. pretty strange. Im debating on...

    LLY: 2005 Duramax mystery T connector

    Yeah just get a brass or copper barbed T connector, might hold up to the heat better.

    I think, I'm gonna give an EGR blocker a try, I drove it around last night, as I got a call out to go to work, and I drove her really hard getting temps higher than usual, this morning it did not bog down on me, but that could just be luck lol

    I hear ya, I don't have any fancy scan tools, I have a cheap plugin one, and ODB FUSION on my phone, it shows freeze frame and certain things, it shows egr voltage and duty cycle, but that's not going to give us anything. Any Scanner Recommended, wont be too brutal on the wallet?

    LLY: No Power Black Smoke at Random

    It chugs hard like a dog barking, while blowing thick black smoke, and then all of a sudden about 10 seconds it clears up and i can take off like nothing, while its chugging like a dog * literally sounds like a retarded dog barking * I can't go more than 30km/h

    It's possible that it could be the EGR, it always reminds me of a few videos I've seen when some duramax's get air in the fuel lines, but I would think If I had air in my lines, that I would have trouble from the get go, and not so much after 20 minutes of driving... I could be wrong.

    It did it again this morning at the same spot it always does, it also occurred last night 3 times. I'm starting to think maybe its my EGR?

    LLY: No Power Black Smoke at Random

    Not always in the morning, but they are cooler, I've had it happen to me around 5pm as well, and still at about 15 to 20 minutes of driving, I had went to lowes and loaded a skid of dricore in, and again at a red light taking off, massive black smoke, no power, no acceleration, I just hold the...

    LLY: No Power Black Smoke at Random

    Hey Guys I'm hoping you could maybe shine some advice onto this issue... Every morning when driving to work, about 20 minute drive, when I finally get off the highway into town and hit the first red light and stop, when I go to take off again, it shudders and the engine has a weird knock to it...

    LLY: Driving me Crazy Injector Malfunction CEL

    Well I think I found the problem... but while soldering it I accidentally pre shrank the heat shrink.. and I have to cut the wire again lol... It was down the FICM harness, on the part that goes down by the EGR, it was rubbing the metal injector line. I wont be able to test until i get a new...

    LLY: Driving me Crazy Injector Malfunction CEL

    When you guys say Ohm it out, I think the problem lies in the C2 Ficm bundle, I'm guessing I'm going to remove the ficm connector and then.... I need to know where the other side is to put the other multi meter lead?? It almost seems like a power issue, as it throws random codes for Injectors 2...

    LLY: Driving me Crazy Injector Malfunction CEL

    To answer the first question, I cut the wire were a previous pigtail was installed and removed the crimps from the old pigtail, I then stripped the wires and pushed the frays together twisting them tightly together I then soldered them and heat shrank the wires individualy and then cut a new...

    LLY: Driving me Crazy Injector Malfunction CEL

    Long story short.... I kept getting a P0202 error, causing the truck to go into tractor mode, so I ice picked the connector, which seemed to have fixed the issue for a year.. it has now re-surfaced, so I replaced the pigtail, soldered the new one in, heat shrank it, and re-loomed, did this on...
