That almost seems to have been a glitch in the computer (PCM). Let's hope it's a permanent fix.
I'm fighting a problem with my smog system to renew the license plates. Seems to be in the EGR area but of course sometimes stuff is inter related. I pulled the valve out and it buzzed out ok best as I can tell. It's the expensive linear type with a motor and a pintel connected to a rheostat and I don't have it as a spare part. Most everything else under there I do carry. I've even got a spare alternator.
My principle is that if you carry it as a spare it ain't never gonna break.
I sure hope my problem doesn't provide to be as obscure as yours.
Good travels.
