I have a 97 Ford Explorer w/a 5.0 V8, 2WD, automatic. My question is this, is it possible to have a 98 engine in this vehicle, possibly because it was produced later in the year? I know the engine is original in the vehicle, I have heard it could be a 98 though. Whether it is or not matters because I can't find the location of the EGR valve and sensor. I have a "check engine" light, and the code is egr valve
2001. Could it be under the air intake manifold ( the one with the 5.0 stamped on it)?- posted
