Author Topic: Replacing 22R exhaust manifold. (Read 9009 times)

tintop · « **on:** Nov 19, 2006, 07:04:09 PM »

I have a 1987 toyota pickup, single cab, I have this interesting Exhaust leak going on.. its very noticeable now, its louder than the stock exhaust.. I want to replace it,

I have a stock 22r exhaust manifold, that has the ports blocked off were the EGR stuff would go, So that would mean i have to Elimanate all the EGR bullshirt, to be able to install this Header thats Not Installed yet

The EGR stuff is still in the truck, and so is the back leak..

My question is How do i remove all the EGR stuff off my motor,?

I would like to have this taken care of soon,----8MPG +Loud Annoying Exhaust+ $2.50 a Gallon.. =

And does anyone know were i can buy a Exhaust manifold gasket for cheaper than @$26.99 $:-\$

This post is really confusing... If the ports are already blocked off then why are you asking how to remove the EGR??? Seemingly, it would have already been removed. It's late and maybe I'm reading this wrong, but can you please clarify because I don't think I'm the only one not understanding what you're asking.

yeah sorry about that, i fixed it, took out the word other..

jimbo74 · « **Reply #6 on:** Nov 20, 2006, 06:24:58 AM »

ok maybe im also still reading it wrong, but the way you worded it it sounds liek your current stock manifold has blocked of egr ports, and so does the new header.. but you want to remove all the egr stuff.

i think you might be trying to say everything is intact and connected currently and the new header has blocked off egr ports and you wnat to remove the stock egr system.

Wow man... people are just trying to help you, but it's hard to even know what you're asking from your posts... If you want to get an attitude about it why don't you head over to pirate... I'm sure they'd be more than happy to help you over there.

if your new header (manifold) has block off plates installed, thats all that needs to be done, the EGR (exhaust gas regulator) is removed.(blocked off) period. Excuse me, its not removed its obsolete, defunkt, no workie. just follow all the existing EGR piping back to the...wherever...and block off that too. your not using it.
So, in answer to your question ( i hope) No. you do not NEED to remove it, but YES you can remove it, IMO, I would remove it just to simplify the under hood.
hope that gets it all figured out.
Oh, and def go with a good quality gaskets.

.. I dont know much about 22r's.. dont want to try to play with the egr stuff, with out some detailed write-up..

First of all, where do you live! If you live in Cali, you'd be screwed taking it off! If it's got a brain, it'll trip that & make it run poorly! I've seen guys take the smog crap off and have the motor run terrible.

tintop · « **Reply #13 on:** Nov 21, 2006, 03:36:42 PM »

we dont have smog or any emmisions in Oregon..

Cheesemaker · « **Reply #14 on:** Nov 22, 2006, 01:45:04 AM »

Most of the Willamette Valley does! What town you from? I'm from Tillamook!

Research some on it, and find out if it will trip your sensors! If your rig runs the same without it, then go for it! Just plug, cap, bolt or crimp off what you don't want!

tintop · « **Reply #15 on:** Nov 22, 2006, 10:34:37 PM »

we dont have it in are valley, I live in Springfield

Tintop, if you go to the top of the general 4wd section there's a sticky thread about getting a discount on factory toyota parts. If you're looking for a toyota exh. manifold gasket then you should email the hookup, cause it's not that far from you

i didn't know that stock manifolds came with the ports blocked off?

Ewong · « **Reply #18 on:** Nov 25, 2006, 01:17:49 PM »

87 huh?

Off the top of my head - SOME 22R engines came with block off plates and others did NOT.
Also there were at least two DIFFERENT types of EGR cross overs that I can think of.

Basically you have two options.

1) Take the block off plates OFF the new exhaust manifold and bolt yer existing EGR stuff on

2) unbolt the EGR to where it connects to the intake manifold (I ASSUME we are talking EFI here).
Get an OEM gasket and MAKE a block off plate with some steel plate (Id go at least 1/8 thick)

Also - LC Engineering might have an OEM block off plate if yer fussy that way.

THe EGR itself has a few vac hoses going to it - trace em back to where they come from and cap em off.

my stock manifold leaked real bad when i bought my truck. instead of putting on a header i decided to get my stock manifold fixed. those manifolds warp and i had to take mine to a engine shop to sand it smooth. i than put a new gasket on it and it sounds great.
