I've never done it. I think mine is already blocked though when we bought it. Not sure how it works on a 97. go to www.mkiv.com and look around. There is step by step somewhere. Also on supraforums.

mkiv.com has it, but you can just cut off a piece of sheet metal and put it where the egr's contact is, are you running turbo? just remember, you're going to get an check engine light since the ecu can't detect the signal from the egr.
