Toyota Hilux/Vigo 1KD-FTV EGR valve and manifold removal

How to remove the EGR valve and intake manifold from the 1KD-FTV Diesel engine KUN 26 (N70) series Toyota Hilux
I did this video quite some time ago and it is provided as a guide only, be aware of stored high pressure fuel in the fuel lines, keep all the fuel system as clean as possible (better than I did in this video) to avoid contaminants in the system.
I have since fitted a catch can prevent most of the oil in the intake to reduce the build up of carbon
Thanks for watching

Such a great video mate thanks so much. Actually made me feel like I knew what I was doing and made the job stress free

[@whotookgetinthebag]

Just want to thank you for this video. Your filming, timing and explanation are amazing. You really helped me do this job much more calmy.

what can cause a 1kd hilux to overboost but at the same time feel sluggish at moving off

[@ArifGhostwriter]

🇬🇧 👍🏽 September 2024 Awesome video buddy!! Do you have an opinion on this hypothetical question: The top of the 'PCV' has a tube that leads into the turbo. This is crankcase gasses. This is what you divert into a catch-can. To your knowledge - will the engine run fine with the PCV outlet open to atmosphere - & - the turbo PCV intake pipe blocked off/sealed? (This is on the basis that I live on a planet where hydrocarbons are good for health)

[@simmoshomeworkshop]

Haha! Short answer yes, plenty of people have blocked the turbo inlet tube from the breather and run the crankcase vent hose from the engine into their chassis rail or similar location, makes a great rust preventative. Car would run fine and would help prevent all that oil in the intake system Of course, it is not recommended from an environmental standpoint. I ran mine to a universal catch can here 👇 kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWfRipKug5xsbqcsi=jid0exaiF1CnExzL

[@golfrfth8725]

Mate, did u cancel the Egr.?

[@simmoshomeworkshop]

Hi Mate, not at this point I did not, I had blanked it prior using a plate with a 7mm hole in it. I found I had unusual boost spikes from time to time so I removed it and just ran a catch can. It's been years since I did this clean video, still going well with just a catch can.

[@golfrfth8725]

Thank u Mate, for your long answer. So i did not understand how kind of part the "catch can..."

[@simmoshomeworkshop]

No worries, I opted to use a catch can on the breather system for the engine to capture the oil vapor before it enters the intake system, to avoid the exhaust gas from the egr mixing with oil causing the build up in the Manifold. More here. kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWfRipKug5xsbqcsi=94jZ8EZuk4iV7fOB. Hope this helps!

@@simmoshomeworkshop thank you mate

[@Mac-bn]

nice content. At 10:53 on the right looks like a filter with straight inlet and outlet for the small hose. May I know what it is call and the function. How often does it need to be replace? Thank you

[@simmoshomeworkshop]

Hey mate, the white and black one? That's the MAP sensor oil filter, it stops any oil vapor entering the MAP sensor. They occasionally crack and you'll see oil around them, as for replacement they are not a common service item, however you can remove and blow out or, like I have shortly after this video, you can replace. I got my replacement for $19.99 and its an easy change out item. Edit** Sorry, you were talking about the one with straight inlets and outlets, I believe this is just a screen/damper for the vacuum into the egr diagram, unless it is damaged it requires no maintenance. Hope this helps!

[@Mac-bn]

@@simmoshomeworkshop Thank you for your explanation. The MAP sensor filter white and black which side should use black on top or white?

[@simmoshomeworkshop]

Black on top from memory, mine had 'AISIN' on it and was written the right way up when fitted. There's a clip to hold it in place

[@rodneyclinton1751]

Q but why would one remove it ?

[@aurassmunyangwa6765]

Prease help me,my 1kd engine after starting the hydrin will be normal but after 40 seconds it start going up to 2000rpm

[@lucasbaker3783]

Is this what they call the ‘egr delete’ and is that where u out the blank plate? On the egr cooler? Im trying to put a blank plate on my egr but cant a video specifying where to actually put the blank plate

[@simmoshomeworkshop]

Hey mate, I was just disassembling and cleaning here, yep I did mention the egr blank at one point there, it goes before the cooler on the 2 bolt flanged tube (the steel one with the accordian flexible section). Be sure to have a small hole on the blank (7mm) to avoid engine codes, and if the blank has slotted holes you can loosen the tube and slide the blank between the cylinder head and the tube more easily Hope this helps

Great video. Thanks for sharing. My hilux d4d has 400.000km. Since 90.000 with egr blocked. Is it necessary to do this ??

[@simmoshomeworkshop]

I'd say if the egr is blanked off entirely it's probably not going to be an issue for you. You could always take the intake butterfly off and shine a torch into the egr valve to gauge the severity of the intake contamination

Hey mate hows it going ive just done this myself thanks to your video, how do i make sure the fuel pipes are clean before reinstalling and i got some carbon in one of the tube pipe things on the manifold how would i go about unblocking it cheers

[@simmoshomeworkshop]

Hey mate, any non-residue solvent cleaner to make sure the tubes are clean and contamination free, I use contact cleaner / carby cleaner or similar aerosol spray. As for carbon in the Manifold, a flexible steel pipe cleaner goes well and from memory oven cleaner was really good at breaking down the heavy carbon deposits.

Hey mate, I need to do this with mine. Do you need to replace any gaskets etc or can they be used again? Tia.

[@simmoshomeworkshop]

Hey mate, replacements aren't really necessary, toyota use a shim like metal gasket on the intake air flange joins so they can be used again if needed. I did however put a very thin flexible gasket maker on a couple of the metal gaskets where the surfaces didn't look perfect. Hope this helps 👍

[@tysonpoole97]

@@simmoshomeworkshop thanks mate. Do you know much about blocking the EGR on these? Does it cause other problems?

[@simmoshomeworkshop]

You can block the egr with a plate on the head side of the egr pipe and cooler, BUT you will eventually get a diagnostic code and end up in limp mode. I ran an egr blank with the 7mm hole drilled in it for a short time but had some crazy boost spikes while it was fitted. I have since removed the restriction plate and fitted the provent catch can. Personally I think the catch can is a better more permanent fix for oil build up.

[@tysonpoole97]

@@simmoshomeworkshop yeah Righto. So it’s just the oil from the intake mixing with the carbon from the EGR that creates the build up? With the catch can fitted the carbon shouldn’t build up as much correct?

[@simmoshomeworkshop]

Yeah pretty much, you can either remove the carbon / soot from entering the intake by blocking or restricting the egr system or limit the oil vapour entering the intake from the breather by using a catch can ( or of course both). Neither soot or oil are terrible on their own, but together are awful.
