On my 95 5.8 I got 3 codes and need to know what to replace. Anyone know? Did it again and got 2

Both of those codes are usually thrown because of vacuum leaks - Time to replace all the plastic lines with 5/32" rubber tubing, and to check the vacuum reservoir can for rust/holes.

Checked the vacuum canister and it's got a hole somewhere. I can't get it off the truck though the bolts are all rotted and fall apart when you touch it. I hooked a vacuum gauge up to it and it didn't hold at all. Hooked it up to my brother finger and it held so it's the canister the gauge works haha

how would you get the nuts off without messing up The studs? I'm going to have to cut the nuts or something

Replaced it. I zip tied and bungee strapped the new one down and the code is gone. I ripped the old one off the liner and drop kicked the F**k out of it. It had a giant hole in the middle of it. Anyway I still have an EGR Code

Put a vacuum line on the EGR and apply vacuum (suck on it lol) and see if the diaphragm moves. If it does then you probably have either a vacuum line leak or a sensor problem.

You mind posting a picture of the vacuum line? Haha sorry I'm not sure which one you mean. Off the tree thing on the intake manifold?

its the line coming off of the egr valve itself. on my truck it was green in color before I replaced it. the other end will be on the solenoid - which should be mounted really close to the ignition coil on the drivers side of the intake.

I would just disconnect the line from the EGR valve first and hook up a rubber tube to it and suck on it to see if it moves. if it does then it is working and you need to see if there is a leak in that green line, or the lines that runs from the reserve tank.

Just replace all those vacuum lines man!
