I agree with that 110%! I unhooked the vacuum line off of my EGR Valve and I got, EGR Flow Insufficient AND an o2 sensor code.

My gas mileage has effectively doubled since the new O2 sensor and still no codes. That seems to have been the root of the evil causing this problem. I could see how the 332 would be caused by a bad O2 sensor, despite how much the valve opened up it would never be enough because of the faulty sensor, so it would tell me insufficient flow.

Ymeski doesn't need to pitch a sale about Seafoam to me, I'm a die hard fan of sea foam products. Gonna get some engine treatment in the gas and oil, and of course throw some through the booster hose. The penetrating oil they make is pretty damn awesome too.

I'm holding off till "Seafoam" Stock goes up for public sale. Then I'll have a little interest in every can sold! Actually, my last "Seafoam" rant on hackersmovie's Synthetic oil Thread (does anybody else's knee start to ache, every time that thread comes back to the top of the page?), was to caution, in the potential overuse of the product!

Read my precautionary comments on its use in the oil, on hackersmovie's Synthetic oil thread! I think it's on pg.5..........or was it pg.55 ?
