EGR VACUUM MODULATOR
INSPECTION
1. DISCONNECT VACUUM HOSES FROM EGR VACUUM
MODULATOR
Disconnect the 2 vacuum hoses from ports P and Q of the
EGR vacuum modulator.
2. INSPECT EGR VACUUM MODULATOR OPERATION
(a) Block port P with your finger.
(b) Blow air into port Q, and check that the air passes through to
the air filter side freely.
(c) Start the engine, and maintain speed at 3,500 rpm.
(d) Repeat the above test. Check that there is a strong
resistance to air flow.
3. RECONNECT VACUUM HOSES TO EGR VACUUM
MODULATOR
Reconnect the 2 vacuum hoses to the proper locations.
EGR VALVE INSPECTION
1. REMOVE EGR PIPE
(a) Loosen the union nut of the EGR pipe.
(b) Remove the 2 bolts, EGR pipe and gasket.
2. REMOVE EGR GAS TEMPERATURE SENSOR
3. REMOVE EGR VALVE
(a) Disconnect these hoses from the EGR valve:
(1) Vacuum hose
(2) Pressure hose
(b) Remove the 2 nuts, EGR valve and gasket.

4. INSPECT EGR VALVE
Check for sticking and heavy carbon deposits.
If a problem is found, replace the EGR valve.
5. REINSTALL EGR VALVE
(a) Place a new gasket on the air intake chamber.
(b) Install the EGR valve with the 2 nuts.
Torque: 21 NVm (210 kgfVcm, 15 ftVlbf)
(c) Reconnect the following hoses to the EGR valve:
wVacuum hose
wPressure hose
6. REINSTALL EGR GAS TEMPERATURE SENSOR
Torque: 20 NVm (200 kgfVcm, 14 ftVlbf)
7. REINSTALL EGR PIPE
(a) Temporarily install the union nut of the EGR pipe.
(b) Install a new gasket and the EGR pipe with the 2 bolts.
Torque: 27 NVm (280 kgfVcm, 20 ftVlbf)
(c) Tighten the union nut of the EGR pipe.
Torque: 64 NVm (650 kgfVcm, 47 ftVlbf)

THREE±WAY CATALYTIC CONVERTER
(TWC) SYSTEM
EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY INSPECTION
1. CHECK CONNECTIONS FOR LOOSENSESS OR
DAMAGE
2. CHECK CLAMPS FOR WEAKNESS, CRACKS OR
DAMAGE
TWC INSPECTION
CHECK FOR DENTS OR DAMAGE
If any part of the protector is damaged or dented to the extent
that it contacts the TWC, repair or replace it.
HEAT INSULATOR INSPECTION
1. CHECK HEAT INSULATOR FOR DAMAGE
2. CHECK FOR ADEQUATE CLEARANCE BETWEEN
CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND HEAT INSULATOR

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMS (2JZ±GE)
SYSTEM PURPOSE
The emission control systems are installed to reduce the amount of CO, HC and NOx exhausted from the
engine ((3), (4) and (5)), to prevent the atmospheric release of blow±by gas±containing HC (1) and evapo-
rated fuel containing HC being released from the fuel tank (2).
The function of each system is shown in the following table.
System Abbreviation Function
(1) Positive Crankcase Ventilation
(2) Evaporative Emission Control
(3) Exhaust Gas Recirculation
(4) Three±Way Catalytic Converter
(5) Sequential Multiport Fuel Injection*
