    17 is egr 18 is fast idle. You really should hook them up. They hook to that "u" pipe coming off the throttle body I believe. If they aren't hooked up they are sucking dirty air and could clog up the solenoids. I remember when a dirt ddobber stoped up 17 and my car would not idle. I drove around for 2 days before I found the problem.

    Yeah thanks to all of you guys I really appreciate it!

    Been to other forums and most people are just rude and dont help worth dick...

    Havent fixed the problem yet but im working on it and will let you guys know if i fixed the issue, I went ahead and bought a new EGR Valve and i will see if it fixes the problem entirely only payed $130 since i had some ebay bucks racked up lol

    If the new valve doesnt fix the issue then ill know its definitely not the valve and will find the issue from there, either way ill keep the new valve so ill be safe for the future

    THANKS!

    The new valve didnt help one bit, about 5 minutes of driving after the new egr installed light came back on and so did the hunting idle and i did reset the ecu via disconnecting the battery for about 10 min.

    Took my car to my dads mechanic and asked what is causing this since he suggested i replaced my EGR and it would fix the problem and he said now it has to be the intake manifold and was like ..........

    So gonna try some other diagnosing lol

    Its not the intake manifold. The egr ports could be stopped slam up on it and the computer would have no idea. If you run through the trouble shooting procedure in the manual you will find the problem.
