Sorry ,Long Post !
I have a 1991 GMC S-15 Snoma Pickup with a 2.5 4 Tech. engine and a 5 speed transmission . No air conditioning . The check engine light has been comming on and going off intermitently over the last couple of years . I finally bought a Actron OBD1 Code Scanner from Autozone ( the kind that makes the check engine light flash ) . See my post on Tool Talk about the testers . I tested the truck with it today and got a code 32 which, according to the book that came with the tester ,code 32 means :
Exhaust gas recirculation ( EGR ) valve diagnostic switch - closed during engine start up or open when EGR flow requested by ECM
OR
EGR/EVRV
I don't remember these trucks ( especially these model years ) having a BARO circuit . Do they ? Also, is there anyway to test the EGR valve without just putting a new one on it and hoping that it fixes it ? Was there a problem with these valves on these model trucks ? The motor is not the original motor , but just like it . Maybe a yer or two difference , but the problem did start until a couple years later also the truck has been wrecked and rebuilt ( new frame and doghouse ) and the problem started about a year or two later . The motor dosen't act up when the light comes on . It keeps on running fine. If I'm not mistaken the EGR valve runs by vacuumn .
P.S. The book defined the light comming on and going off as an intermittent problem meaning that the computer saw a problem ,but it went away and the code stayed in the computers memory.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
