Meter exhaust gas back into your engine's intake with the Standard EGV735 exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve, a direct-fit Ford Ranger EGR valve for the 2001-2012 Ford Ranger and 2001-2010 Mazda B2300 with the L4-2.3L engine. The listed applications use one valve.
The EGR valve opens to send a measured portion of exhaust gas back into the intake. This helps lower combustion temperatures and limit the formation of nitrogen oxides (NOx). Signs the valve may need replacing include a rough idle, stalling, pinging under load or a check engine light. These can occur when the valve sticks open, sticks closed or clogs with carbon.
If a failed valve is behind your drivability problem or EGR trouble codes, a Ford Ranger EGR valve replacement with the EGV735 replaces that component. Diagnose the cause before you replace the valve, because vacuum leaks, clogged EGR passages or sensor faults can produce similar symptoms. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct gasket and installation procedure. See the Buyer's Guide tab for complete fitment details.
What does an EGR valve do?
It opens to let a metered portion of exhaust gas flow back into the intake. This helps lower combustion temperatures and reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) formation.
Is the EGV735 the right 2001 Ford Ranger EGR valve?
Yes. It is listed for the 2001-2012 Ford Ranger with the L4-2.3L engine. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for the full fitment chart.
Does this EGR valve also fit the Mazda B2300?
Yes. It is listed for the 2001-2010 Mazda B2300 with the L4-2.3L engine.
What are signs an EGR valve may need replacing?
Signs include a rough idle, stalling, pinging under load, a check engine light with EGR-related codes or a failed emissions test. Other faults can cause these too, so diagnose the cause before replacing.
What should I check before installing it?
Confirm the valve is at fault and inspect the EGR ports and passages for carbon buildup. Follow the vehicle service information for the gasket and installation procedure.
