Will de-egr blow injector seals?

Hi guys, As the title suggest I was wondering whether blanking off the EGR valve would put extra pressure on the injector seals. Have just got my disco back after two weeks in the shop trying to find the problem.

Any ideas?

Cheers

nah dow think so ....

I'm certain it wont... it's on the air inlet manifold, it doesnt affect the injectors at all... and it's not working on own pressure, it "inhales" air.

had same problem with injector seals before i de-EGR'd, after cleaning out the intercooler , inlet manifold and egr i ordered the blanking kit the next day .
what a fookin mess!! and what a totally stupid idea the EGR really is !!
no problems with my seals and the blanking kits been on near on a year now .

Thanks for that. I thought it was a bit far fetched when I heard it.
