What is the Exhaust Back Pressure Valve?
The Exhaust Back Pressure Valve (EBPV/EBV) is designed to close during cold engine operation to allow the engine to warm up more quickly by creating additional exhaust back pressure. The system components include a flapper valve in the exhaust outlet housing which is controlled by an actuator located in the exhaust pedestal. The PCM operates an electric solenoid (also located in the pedestal) which send engine oil pressure to the actuator when EBPV action is desired .

What can go wrong?
As these trucks age, failures of the EBP system are becoming more common. We have seen trucks that could hardly move out of their own way because the EBV was rusted in the closed position. Oil-leaking from the actuator located in the pedestal is also common. The solenoids also fail or break and quite expensive to repair .

PLEASE PAY ATTENTION !!!
It's very important to determine if your Ford F-Series truck is an early or late 1999. This product ONLY fits the late 1999's. Please measure the diameter of the intake cover connection before purchasing. Late 1999's trucks have a 3-inch inlet, early1999's trucks have a 2-inch inlet.
