Replace EGR valve in ford 02 escort.

[Mr_Fiux]

Hey guys.

I am amateur mechanic of powerful soviet union.

I need Great American help for car.

How do I change the EGR valve on an 02 escort?

I took of the bolts attaching it to the engine but there is this big ass metal hose that the EGR valve is attached to and I cant take it off as it is inaccessible to great Hammer and Sickle wrench.

Need help or advise on how to remove? Do I have to lift great American car with donkey powered lift?

You will have to take one side or the other off. Crows foot helps alot in those situation, also penetrating oil.
