Never attribute to malice things that are better explained by stupidity.
that carbon buildup is from the EGR, not a huge issue, a lot of times the EGR port in the intake manifold will be completely plugged...

Just a question, in your other thread you mentioned engine rpm, is your stock tach working? If yours is working I must have moved a wire wrong or something as mine hasn't worked since I got the engine running...
Yes. My tach works fine. It must be something else with yours. You're right. I remember cleaning several clogged EGR's and ports. I realize now that the problem lies somewhere else. I had the knock sensor and ECT wiring mixed up and fixed it. Engine still misses a little @ WOT, but is much improved.
