Can anyone tell me, is there a difference between EGR valves over the years for the 5S-FE?
Is an EGR an EGR an EGR? --------------------  |

My CEL had been on and off for the last few weeks, code 71, egr. The odd part was, for the beginning of the time that the light would come on, it would literally flash at me, stayed on for 3 seconds and went off, as time progressed i noticed that the light only came on when my gas tank was full and between 3/4 tank, then there would be no light activity thereafter, until the next fill up.
Weird coincidence? or does the gas tank level have something to do with that? Anyway, now, more recently, the light has been on constantly, every now and then it will turn off itself, but it soon comes back. I dont have the money to go guessing at the EGR system, and since it isnt bothering anything as of now, im not gonna fix it. BUT i am curious how the gas tank levels affect this! Also, i thought (from what i have read) the CEL system was designed to check only every x miles on the performance of the car?? Why would it think it has a problem and then in 3 seconds to a few minutes decide everything is ok??

There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out.
