Seal the connection between the EGR valve and its mounting surface with the Standard Ignition EGR Valve Gasket VG29. This exhaust gas recirculation valve gasket drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1988-1990 Buick LeSabre, 1988-1993 Buick Riviera, 1991-1992 Chevrolet Lumina, and 1988-1991 Pontiac Bonneville.
The EGR valve gasket sits at the joint where the EGR valve bolts to its mounting flange, forming a tight seal so exhaust gases stay routed through the intended passage. A hardened, cracked, or leaking original can let gases or vacuum escape, which may show up as rough idle, hesitation, or an EGR-related trouble code.
- Sealing function: seals the EGR valve to its mounting surface to keep the recirculation path leak-free.
- Direct-fit replacement: designed to install in place of the original gasket on the listed applications.
- Fresh service part: replaces an original that has hardened or failed, restoring a clean sealing surface at reassembly.
If a leaking EGR valve gasket is the cause of your symptom, this part replaces it; diagnose the underlying condition before installing, as these signs can have other causes.
