7afe problem please help Options

[Yoni502]

I am having some problems with my 7afe whenever I got around 2,000 Rpm it starts sounding like gas would be cutting off then it runs normal when I press the gas pedal? And another problem is when I first turn it on before it heats up it runs normal and smooth once it meets it's normal temp it feels very slow and loses power can't think if anything that it could be Thanks

The only way the egr can cause a misfire is via a vacuum leak in the hoses controlling it or for the egr valve to be physically stuck open. Its highly unlikely it would stick open, they always fail and throw an insufficient flow code, its inherent to the design that 99.9% of the time they fail closed. If the egr failed it would impact the engine most at idle, not at 2000 rpm. But it would just make the engine run better if it failed, not worse, while slightly increasing NO2 emissions.

Check the code first, just short a wire or paperclip between E1 and TE1 I believe in the diagnostic port next to the master cylinder in the top driverside of the engine compartment. Then turn the key on and count the number of blinks. It will flash several times(first digit X_), pause and then flash several more times (second digit _X). It may pause a long time and then start flashing another code.
Flash - flash - - - - - flash - flash - flash - - - - - - - - - - - - - flash - flash - flash - - - - - flash - - - - - - - - - - - - - - repeat.
^this would be a code 23 and code 31 for example.
