Well, EGR valve seems fine. I put 15 inches of vacuum on it (engine off) and it held. Then while engine running, applied vacuum and the engine almost stalled.

I've got a similar question.... same year/model: 2003 Eddie Bauer. My problem is the clear plastic part that covers the bulb is missing. Anyone know where I can find a replacement? We only have one wrecking yard here and they don't have any 2'd gen Expeditions at all that I can scavenge.- Brian Beckers
