I cannot stop the leak. Apparently they must have tried taking it off when they swapped out trannies. That much leak be causing my truck to run like crap for the first 20 minutes ?

your.mechanic, November 01, 2012, 15:58MasterEGR pipe leaking will NOT cause your car to run rough...The EGR will block any vacuum leak when it is operating correctly...if it is STUCK OPEN, it will run rough all the time except when accelerating.
