To be absolutely certain, I highly recommend:
* Consulting a repair manual specific to your 1999 Pontiac Sunfire 2.2L. These manuals have diagrams and detailed descriptions that will show you exactly where it is.
* Using an online parts diagram resource. Many websites (some require a VIN) offer detailed diagrams of engine components for specific vehicles. Searching for "1999 Pontiac Sunfire 2.2L engine diagram" can help.
Simply searching visually isn't always reliable, as access to the EGR valve can be hindered by other engine components. Using a manual or diagram will greatly improve the accuracy and safety of locating it.
