rainy season :(

[Huaraches]

Am i the only one experiencing low mpg. I think a few others were too. So my question is could it be the rain and wet roads not giving the car enough traction thus making the wheels spin more in other to move the car. As a result of waisting more gas ?

Check egr valve.

What is it I hace to check on the egr valve ?

[BottleCapBandit]

there are 3 vacuum hoses on your throttle body. the 2 closest to the firewall should pull a vacuum when revving. None should have vacuum at idle.

The 2 hoses circled in red should pull vacuum with you are NOT at idle.

So i need to check if they suck up air by pulling them out while I rev the engine a bit ?

[BottleCapBandit]

indeed.

Ok so if the pull in air they should be fine ? And if they dont?

[BottleCapBandit]

If no vacuum then most likely you have a stuck egr valve. You can replace or clean. You will need a need gasket for either one tho.

Also if their not connected due to me messing around their a few days ago with my intake pipe then that will explain everything lol but I would have to still check cuz i dont recall me disconnecting one

What kind of gasket? I thought you just plug and play
