    Yeah , but the Reciepts at home. Google it , I found them once there , about 5-6 pages down. Guy responding to one of my posts turned me on to them , but can't remember which post. Sigh !

    I had purchased the valve and O ring kit when I bought the filter. The actuator valve was $350.00 at the Cummins dealer in Chattanooga, TN and the filter was like $50. I replaced the filter first, it took care of the problem and I returned the actuator for a refund.

    I'm scratching my head . I called Cummins about a kit for my 06 ,(05 engine ) , and none was available . And , mine doesn't have a filter. The posts I've read , where there was a filter , it was just a small mesh screen.
    Hope someone can clear up my confusion!

    mine is a 2004 cummins and it has a spin on filter about the size of a car oil filter on the bottom of the actuator. Someone has said that on newer models the filter was eliminated.

    Early release EGR engines had the solenoid valve style with the little spin on air filter. That was short lived, and quickly updated to the later type solenoid which is basically just a metal box.
