Re: EGR valve threading for O2 sensor?

[Jamey Harris <jameyh@charles.stanford.edu>]

Is an Oxygen sensor a suitable replacement for an EGR valve?  My EGR 
valve is apparently leaking and needs to be replaced. 

This question really shows my ignorance, I know.  I feel like I'm 
asking if an oil filter is a suitable replacement for a tire.  Hopefully 
some of you can get a chuckle out of it before educating me.  


Thanks,
