<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Hey all... quick question , would love some help
with this one...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>I'm just finishing up a motor swap in my 1988
buick Lesabre T-type... a 1997 3800 supercharged.. I'm using the stock 1988
computer from the original 3800 series I. The problem I face is that of the the
EGR valve... the origial is the 4 wire digital and the new motor uses the linear
egr with PWM and position feedback.. right now I just want to use a block off
plate where the EGR valve was so I can get the car running, and then worry about
making an adapter plate so that the old EGR will fit on the new mounting plate..
If I block off the EGR ports with a plate, and don't hook up the harness to
anything.. will the computer sense this and not play with spark or fuel when the
EGR is supposed to be engaged? I understand that when the EGR opens.. the
computer compensates by advancing the timing and leaning out the amount of
fuel?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>should I worry, or will the computer take care
of this in the mean time?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Your help is appreciated, response to me
personally, or in the list would be great, </FONT></DIV>
