So my check engine light keeps coming on randomly my car will sputter an jerk when it happens jus installed fuel pressure regulator and a larger mass air also noticed a build up on my egr when I took it off for install on the fp regulator . How can I pull codes ? Also I'm thinking it's the egr jus lookin for a second opinion? Thx

Is this sputter at idle? Maybe egr is malfunctioning coming on at idle causing sputter

its your o2's, once they get hot they cause your car to sputter at low rpms, to be sure next time it sputters floor it and wait a sec or two an you will get all your hp back. try it an let me know.

Will that throw a check engine light thou? I have and it does cons back and it does feel like I lose horse power .. I need to check the code jos can I check it do I need the obd1 code tool?

yeah it does throw a code i forgot what number the code is but when the throttle is wide open it eliminates the o2's (same thing as not running them)id get under their check them and replace them both if not the driver side is the one that usually goes bad first.
