When I removed the one off my 85 it was so plugged it was hard to push in a screwdriver. your whole intake manifold will have a thick layier of goo.


I have since replaced (I have a Kali Kar) intake/ex manifold, turbo, and down pipe to a Fed spec, more or less. Iam using the manifolds from a 78/79 300SD. no EGR. much cleaner.

I had the same experience when I removed my EGR. Be careful not to push that crap into the intake manifold or you might have some unexpected results.
