i bit the bullet and got p38 1998 2.5 manual plugged in yesterday and there was 2 faults on it

egr fault
fuel pump fault

the fault i have s when i stop at traffic lights and go to set off injector light flashes then engine tries to die so let off throttle and it will run ok

so blocked egr vac pipe to eliminate that and still doing it

any ideas before new pump ordered

EGR modulator valve won't show a fault code either.

wammers said:

Don't know if it does or doesn't but seeing as it and the MAF are the only EGR parts that are electrical apart from the ECU EGR section itself, they are the only parts that could do. The MAF certainly throws an airflow fault if disconnected.

There is no feedback from the EGR modulator valve that I can see, it may show a fault if the coil is OC or disconnected.
