    Given that the trouble code was nothing to do with EGR, that EGR valve disassembly may have been an unnecessary distraction. Best case, it doesn't hurt anything, but there are also those times when by doing too many things that aren't related to the code you've got you can end up adding new problems to what you started with.

    Maybe the mod should be asked to edit the thread title to not say egr...

    You have to get it running first but compare the flow out of the exhaust between Prii.

    If it's actually starting it may be going down on low power which should code.
