    From all the discussion, it seems that the EGR blank is not really the issue. As I read it, changes to the air flow pattern causes the MAF to tell the computer to shut down for a second. That reasoning is supported by the advice to adjust the needle valve, causing different spool up rates (and consequently different air flows).
    I don't see any relationship between MAF readings, and the intake manifold--UNLESS the EGR solenoid somehow opens under hard acceleration and changes air flow,
    I can't find anything in my Gregory's manual, and it is fairly detailed.
    Unless I find a better solution, I am going with a $???? HPDiesel housing and air box.
    Comments on my "logic" (or not)

    MAF sensor fitting $250, Air box lid $395 Need to quit drinking for a week!!!
