Default 1996 on going saga

Hi all;

Been awhile and I have been hard at work on this pig. Despite my surgery to remove my prostate and have a **** bag. LOL I fixed the leak at the oil filter where the cooler lines hook up. I bought two kits but They were both O rings and didn't work so another 12 dollars waisted and 5 quarts of oil. (didn't catch the leak rite away the first time) This time I went to work and made 2 gas-cuts about the size of a silver dollar made out of rubber and now it's fixed costing me nothing. That repair was my fault as were all of them so far, God who would have thought I would be learning this much.

Now I have 2 codes and need a little help.
1. P0121 I have an leaky exhaust system and am going to try that
2. P1153 this should be an easy fix I am just going to clean the EGR valve

I read Stickys explanation on each I was just wondering if any one has had any experience on these two.

Eventually I am going to get this thing rite mechanically and then I am going to clean and buff the **** out of the paint and scrub the interior. This is the dirtyest and most neglected car I have ever had. I can't wait I love the transformation a dirty car make when they are detailed. I bought this off a girl and I expected it she is young and they are pigs and don't respect anything. She was given it and didn't have to work for it so she took it for granted. If I can figer out how to get pictures on this I will post before and after pictures.

If you take the time to read this please comment I would love to hear your inputs. I read and check all the new post two to three time a day.

This has been a world of knowege for me once I figured out the search feature.
