well i plugged the vac line going to it and no more honking and it starts without a high idle and idles alot better seems like i dont have as much problem with big hills but it still bucks. could it be my tranny? the reason i ask is becouse i will be in 3rd on the highway and as soon as i put in drive it does it... back to third smoth with no bucking

you need to remove the EGR and cap the hole it may still be causing a vacuum leak cus the diaphragm is bad
