Go on in mind, I don't take a 05 KJ FS Mannie (I'm savin' upwards...) so I may non exist able to call certain items by their correct names but I will do my all-time to draw them. 1. Disconnect and remove the battery. 2. Disconnect the wires and remove the power distribution center off of the battery tray. There are iii snap connectors to release and it lifts off. 3. Remove the battery tray. If I remember there were three bolts. 4. Remove the CAC hose from the intercooler to the flow control valve (FCV) and disconnect the electrical connection to the FCV. v. Remove the electrical connections to the fuel filter. Remove the banjo bolts holding the fuel lines to the filter head. DON'T lose the copper washers on each side of the banjo fittings. Remove the filter head/2 nuts and remove the filter assembly mounting bracket/3 nuts. 6. You'll run into a steel tube with V-groove band clamp mounted to the FCV and a two commodities plate mounted to the EGR. Remove information technology. Removed the wire subclass just to save my duke when removing the tube from the EGR. seven. There are 4 allen caput cap screws holding on the CAC hose snorkle and the FCV to the intake mannie remove them. There is a gasket I believe on the snorkle and a large O band on the FCV or vice versa. Both are reusable. The gasket volition exist stuck on and the O band fits in a groove. 8. With some acrobatic skills y'all'll be able to see the EGR and the cooling housing. You'll observe another steel tube coming from the other side effectually the back of the engine. Remove the ii bolts into the EGR. No need to remove the tube the EGR volition slide out. 9. The EGR has 2 small coolant lines attached to it at the mid point. Now, I didn't drain any coolant from the organization. I cut off the squeeze-on clamps (Careful not to nick the hoses and replaced with 2 practiced stainless steel clamps). Had a couple of plugs (about iii/8" dia) in hand and pulled off the hoses and plugged them. Be QUICK..... 10. Remove EGR. 4 bolts vertical to the floor. THERE is a steel gasket between the EGR and the cooling bedchamber mounting don't lose it or damage information technology. You'll have to pull off various wire mounts only to shift them around but all pop out hands. When I reassembled I used a little anti-sieze compound on all the fasteners just in instance I'll be doing this again. Besides on the "Princess'southward" oiler there was another top engine (probably for sound) encompass below the dressy cover. I cut the drivers half of that in half (with it full length and the wire bundles on top of it information technology took a lot of praying and cussing which canceled out the praying.... a bad circle) to remove easily so I tin check and make clean the heave sensor whe required. Keep in mind when reassembling not to over tighten... Refill the coolant tank accordingly. Prime number the fuel sytem. Put fire to'her. Cheque for leaks and you're adept to get. How'southward that....for a Carpenter _________________ '05 CRD Limited Pricol EGT, Heave GDE Hot '11; EDGE Trail switched SEGR; Provent; Magnaflow; Suncoast T\C, Transgo Tow'n'Go switch; Cummins LP module, Fleetguard filter, Filterminder 2.five" Daystar f, OME r; Ranchos; K80767's, Al's lifted uppers Rubicons, ii.55 Goodyears Iv in a row really makes it go

Some demand more room to piece of work than others. I think y'all need to remove the FCV to become to the EGR simply if you can practice that without removing the battery go for it. I call back the aforementioned could be said of the fuel filter housing. It also seems to me that the EGR is more accessible from below when laying under there and then peradventure that is a better approach bending for those who accept tried it. I HAVE Not so take my advice with a big not of caution. _________________ Dave '06 CRD Limited, Lt.

While I was skinny plenty, I didn't recollect a slice of cardboard or a lift or a trench were entirely necessary...so I went with the old-fashioned 'winging it' method. I separated the solenoid from the valve body and have the valve torso soaking. I'll exist reassembling and reinstalling tomorrow.
