This is a great post, thanks Baffler. When I tried to do my EGR a few weeks ago, it was stuck solid in the inlet manifold. I spent about 4-5 hours spraying with carb cleaner, leaving for a bit, and hitting the edges with black PVC pipe (wood was too soft, and kept rounding off). It wouldn't budge a mm. Any tips on removal aside from what's already been mentioned. Engine hot maybe? Or just persevere and over a few attempts separated by driving, the carb cleaner will eventually penetrate...?
