I am a old machinic as well and I would aggree if it was not the fact that a bouching pointer is not all that unlikely with todays motors.

So watch and see it the pointer bouches on a cold motor...egr does not normally cut in until the motor is warmed up.

Second I would shut down the egr to test the gauge before I tore into the motor.

Last is of course a dry and wet compression test.

My 2 cents worth.

After all I have tons of power and get a nice clean 29 MPG stock with a bouching pointer...

And have done so for the past couple of months.
