exhaust back pressure sensor

[maack]

hey guys, i am removing my turbos to replace the high pressure cartridge today and was thinking about removing the egr provision pipe and installing the block off up high with the ebp tapped into it. should i replace the back pressure sensor while i am there? i am uncertain on the lifespans of the sensors themselves. thanks for any input.

If EBP is still reading fine why bother spending the money? Plus with it being up top now it will literally take 5 min to replace when it goes bad.

I would not just screw the sensor into the block off plate. Move the tube or go have a hydraulic shop make you a hose.
