Thumbs down 6.0 new strategy egr info

I just got some info from a very reliable source.

The newest ford 6.0 flash causes the truck to do some very strange things unless the EGR valve is plugged in and in place

The cooling fan wont work properly. The turbo vanes wont cycle. Your AC wont work and it will command a power loss. All unless the EGR valve is in place and plugged in

This explains a few things for those of you experiencing a power loss after a delete on stock trucks

No because it will still set low egr flow codes
