it doesnt help, put it that way. basicly opens the egr system up to atmosphere.

but it would be okay to do it tempery?
and if you do block it off where do the gases go when the EGR is active? since there no longer being put back into the inlet

they go nowhere. on a mantzel they should go through a pipe in the blanking plate up into the box itself.

fort they should, surely just blocking it will cause more problems?
wouldn't it be better to just let it vent to atmosphere?
