so i know i already asked about injectors once and i
got some helpful advice but i got to thinking is
that going to make me run really rich and fail
emmisions i live in texas and nox is high to begin
with... also if it did run rich would a throttle
body from say fastman compensate???

Instead of compensating with more air, try a better ignition system. I have an accell 300+ digital system (its plug and play, easy to install) or you coud go with an MSD of Crane system, any one will do the same thing. Hot coil+ mutliple sparks= really clean emissions. I'm up in Ontario Canada, and we have California specs for our emissions, Mine are so low I've never had a problem in 10 years

High nox readings on a 94 could also be from a bad
or malfunctioning EGR valve or it's electronic
solenoid/switch.
You also need a cat on that motor & not gutted, Also
make sure there are no exhaust leaks before the cat.

your absolutely right about that every great once in
a while it pops a code for the egr system but then
its off for months at a time.. have a cat not gutted
and no holes but this has been a problem since
before i modded it could it still be the egr?

Other symptoms a bad/faulty EGR can cause,
Poor idle, Poor gas mileage, Engine pinging.

Make note, The reason I mentioned you need a cat and
no exhaust leaks, The EGR will not work properly on
those motors otherwise.

Message:
If you were to pull the codes you would find the
code for the EGR is still there, Stored/saved.

There has been problems with 3in. on the 3.9's

Check for the stored codes, If the EGR still shows
up, Get a new one. If the trouble shows up again
you can try capping your 3in. pipe with
a short 3 - 2 1/2in adapter.

Glad to offer what help I can.

ok have been thinking about it lately anyways just
no time to do it at the moment. and after the new
one is installed would the 3 in cause the new egr to
fail prematurely

No, Install the new one, clear codes by leaving neg.
off battery.

If the code reappears then try capping the exhaust
pipe like i said.

I'll check back from time to time see how it goes,
Give me an update.

Won't be as bad as you thought, Two bolts and 1
electric plug. It's easy to get to.
Be sure to clean the EGR port and surface before
install (most likely heavy carbon)
and use a new gasket. (should be included)
