P1494 code can cause by EGR lift sensor.

When the engine is cold,disconnect the EGR sensor connector and clean the contacts.

Reconnect the EGR connector and reset code.

================

If the code does come back then I will clean the carbon under the EGR valve (or replace it)/
the EGR air passage MUST be clean also.

Please order a EGR base gasket before you start this job.

It's very time consuming but it preventive you must do.

This should free up the movement on the EGR.


I will ran a FULL TANK of Chevron gas to clean out the injector also.


Reset the code and you should be fine.


Please post more information on the comment window.
