Hi, I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and the next time you need a part for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the EGR valve on this 1996 Chevy Tahoe with the 5.7-liter V8 engine. It's the same part and process on these Tahoes from 1996 to 2002. The items you'll need for this include a new EGR valve from 1AAuto.com and a 10mm socket and ratchet with an extension.
Your EGR valve is located right here. You want to just pry up on that tab and pull the harness free. Then remove these two 10mm bolts. We'll just fast-forward as Don does that. Now pull the EGR valve up and out.
There is a gasket here but if you have trouble removing it, just leave it on there. On the right is the old EGR valve; on the left is the new one from 1A Auto with a new gasket. You can see they're identical, and they'll fit exactly the same.
To keep your gasket from falling off, just use some small pieces of tape to tape it on there. Now lower your EGR valve down into place, and replace those two 10mm bolts and tighten them up. Then reconnect the harness, and you're all set.
