No heat after EGR delete install.

Disconnected a few hoses to get the side EGR cooler out. Is it possible there could be a bubble in the lines? If so, how do I purge the lines? Thanks

Sounds like you have an air pocket in the cooling system which in turn affects the heater core. After I finished my delete, I topped off the coolant again leaving the reservoir lid open, vehicle running heat on high. If you thermostat doesn't open you may have to drive the vehicle to increase your operating temp then recheck your coolant level when you return after your drive.

Its fixed. HUGE air bubble. Pinched the heck out of the radiator hose and had to top it off again. Thanks for the help.
