#1 Re: Maintenance » EGR VALVE FIX » 2023-09-20 21:33:14

Hi all,
Sorry for jumping on a potentially 'forgotten' thread but got an issue.
I've recently purchased a Citroen C15 van and I'm having issues with excessive white smoke on start up which doesn't seem to be clearing for longer periods of time. It's had an engine change in the past from the original 1.7xud to what I believe is a DW8 engine. Read up through this entire thread and wonder if this EGR sh!te is causing issues. My EGR has only one vacuum connection which has a cotton/fabric covering on it which connects to itself. I have no other hoses connected to it and can't see any hidden away, nor do I have the valve which from photos on here is located near the coolant header tank. My worry is that from Griffins description I have a DW8 engine but my EGR has a green cap which stated previously belong to the DW8B I believe? I've cleaned the EGR and inlet (plastic tubes) as these were brimmed with coking/sooty debris. Any help is apprecicated! Cheers
