Thread: EGR removal...

Scott oz,

Yup this is the Land Rover part no. ANR6916 for Right Hand Drive Fenders.

Its the vac line (with no T joint) between brake servo and vac pump.

My ANR6916 arrived today. Will not fit a TD5 defender and has a "T" piece

I looked at the invoice and the part is actually quoted as RO-ANR6916. I think the RO has something to do with it being a LR part which had to be brought into OZ.

So still looking.

Did you ever find a pipe without the T ?

Steve,

No still looking. Mine came from LR but because I quoted the part number they could only confirm it was a vacume line and being a special order not available in OZ I'm stuck with it.

I'm wondering what scope there is for just replacing this length with any other length of pipe? If its a snug fit onto the one way valve I don't see why it should work?

Series Land Rover's just use a basic push fit rubber vacuum pipe.

I also wondered if there was any good use I could make of a vacuum under there .... but drawn a blank there.

I'm still wondering why anyone would bother for the sake of a $0.02 rubber bung

Apart from the fact it would be obvious to someone who knew what to look for, is there any reason why you could not just remove the pipe from the manifold and put a blanking plate to each end ??

The simplest way is just to balank off the maifold end, disconnect/plug the little hoses and plug the vacume line

However that leaves the valve restricting the air flow. Also depending on the EGR system a lot of other now surplus plumbing. over all leaves a lot of **** in there doing nothing.

I've taken all the little pipes off removed modules and replumbed the coolant pipes to the previous model which didn't have the water cooler.

The only thing I haven't done is removed the wire's to the ECU.

The idea of replacing the vacume line is it "finishes" the job and uses all standard parts. Overkill but so what.
