hi,,, can somebody tell me how to check and see if my egr is working right,,,,i am getting a bad pinging,,,also what is a good way to clean the egr system in case it is blocked,,,i am also getting a code 21 which is the 02 sensor and i can not figure it out ,,i am thinking that the egr might have something to do with it because of exhaust gases,,,the truck is running rich ,,you can smell the fuel and see a little black smoke,,,,the truck is a 93 toyota with a 22re

Im not too familiar with a 22re egr system ,but I know Ive seen your answer in the fsm & this forums search.seems like you can use Seafoam to clean it.I cleaned my egr valve with a bucket.I took it off and threw it in a bucket next to my shed and left it there. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

How old is the O2 sensor? Normally when you get the code, it's gone bad.

A working EGR should either kill the engine or make it run rough when an external vacuum source is applied.
