Bottom line, roof up , thermometer down sale ;) I have price of £3000 no bids please.

Help! Is this priced about right or ? Is it the fact it's a V6 keeping it from selling or just the particaalr year model? Watching stuff on Ebay and mine seems cheap but have no real idea of market price only how much it cost me to buy.

Took it out for a run yesterday, different exhaust note and MORE power on light throttle. Codes all fixed permanently as well.Cheers for everyone sinput.

;) Honestly it's meant to be like that :)

Finally all sorted , problem was finding time rather than anything else . EGR manifold port WAS blocked. All cleaned through, new EGR valve fitted and no fault codes showing on tickover. Need to take for a run to be sure , also sorted my pop up headlights . Now I can wait for more people not to...

Having had one purchaser walk away for reasons unknown I'll fix the problem rather than it look like I'm trying to pull a fast one ." Yeah mate, they all came with only 3 wheels to improve the cornering "

I 100% know what the fault is now I've looked closer :) Someone has removed the entire EGR valve solenoid body ! LOL Nice blanking plate all painted up that gave no clue until I started to look into the system. Another bit to get in from Roack auto as I'm getting replacement gaskets anyway.

It's a 95 3.4 v6 eurospec Firebird. Fault codes showing are 64 ( running lean) , 75/76/77 EGR solenoid faults on all 3.

Is this what ir looks like , perched on top of the rh exhaust manifold ? http://www.rockauto.com/info/154/EGV384Tphoto%20primary__ra_p.jpg

Finally got round to looking at the faults , stripped egr connection and throttle body .Some dirt in there so it's soaking. So, where are these 3 solenoid valves to do with the EGR? If I'm correct in their location then I think I may found found the issue ?

I can HEAR the exhaust leak so will be the first port of call as that is a suggested common fault .Fix it regardless , clear codes , try again. Still there , look at next most common ;)

Code reader turned up from Jegs today so straight out there to get some codes. 64 , 75, 76, 77 ...HOUSE!! . Quick search online shows the most likely causes as 64 = exhaust leak , 75/76/77 sooted up EGR system which can be cleaned from the top. I'll order some gaskets and get on that then...

One of my favourite shots with the other favourite taken by Sarah

The guy who already had an orange Mk 3 savage lived on Old Farm bought it from Mick . Never see it again since that day . I didn't take photos at teh time as it was simply always around.

Nowhere close, no fins and not even the same colour ;)
