Egr

Egr
My check engine light came on last week so I ran the codes.
P1408- EGR flow out of range
My old man is trying to get a new one for me.
He found one with a different part # and im not sure if it will work.
Does anyone know if a different EGR will work on my truck? The new one came off a 3.0 liter (same as mine) but im not sure what kinda engine it was from.
Anyone know if it will work or has anyone had this problem with their ranger?

I donno what car it came from. Pretty sure its not a ranger, dont even know if its a ford.
Dont have an EGR on yours? (Exhaust Gas Recirculation)
I thought every engine has one.

Not every engine has EGR. The EGR system caused so much warranty expense that Ford has been able to eliminate it on some years/engines and then just calibrate around it.
And not every EGR code means that you have a bad EGR valve. The most unreliable part of the EGR system is the DPFE (Differential Pressure Feedback EGR) sensor that senses exhaust gas flow for the EGR. For every EGR valve that fails, dozens of DPFE's fail.
That doesn't mean that your problem must be the DPFE but the odds are that it is.

Well my dad brought home something, i think it is a sensor (not positive) but this is what it looked like.

I changed it today but i have to go to my cousins house to get his star tester to clear the codes.
I hope it will be fixed.
