Well, you first got to remove the keeper which is that plastic thingy on a srtap. That keeps it from ever rattling loose. Get that out first then you still might need to push a tab back, but it will be doable.
I figured it out... it's a Homer Simpson "DUH!" moment... just reach around to the right hand side of it and you can "push in" on the tab and release it.
Having said that, I replaced my EGR valve (it needed it, didn't feel like fooling with it to clean it) and I noticed that the part that the valve itself sits on (the u-looking thing) was CAKED with carbon deposits.
Any ideas on how to clean that out without getting carbon into the engine itself?
