Are the bolts snapped? A junkyard will be your cheapest bet for that 90-92 digital EGR. I asked guys about the wiring for a digital EGR, hoping that my style (85-89) of vacuum EGR could be swapped on, but haven't heard any wire descriptions yet, besides that there are 4 wires. The vacuum EGR setup is cheaper.

same thing happened on my '90 RS with the 3.1. Go to a salvage and pick up a valve off of a late 80's-early 90's BOP 3.8 v6. They are plentiful and are a direct bolt on replacement. Just take out the 2 bolts that hold the adapter plate to the exhaust manifold and bolt the entire assembly on. I got mine for $15 and the dealer wanted $400!!!
