1991 LEXUS SC400 engine

(b) Apply battery voltage across the terminals.
(c) Check that the air flows from port E to the filter.
If operation is not as specified, replace the VSV.
4. REINSTALL VSV (a) Install the VSV with the bolt.
Torque: 18 N Vm (185 kgf Vcm, 13 ft Vlbf)
(b) Connect the following hoses:
(1) Vacuum hose (from EGR valve) to VSV
(2) Vacuum hose (from EGR vacuum modulator) to VSV
(c) Connect the VSV connector.
5. RECONNECT CABLE TO NEGATIVE TERMINAL OF BATTERY
INSPECTION OF EGR VACUUM
MODULATOR (Exc. USA Spec.)
1. DISCONNECT VACUUM HOSES FROM EGR VACUUMMODULATOR
Disconnect the three vacuum hoses from ports P, Q and R of
the EGR vacuum modulator.
2. INSPECT EGR VACUUM MODULATOR OPERATION (a) Block ports P and R with your finger.
(b) Blow air into port Q, and check that the air passesthrough to the air filter side freely.
(c) Start the engine, and maintain speed at 2,500 rpm.
(d) Repeat the above test. Check that there is a strong resistance to air flow.
3. RECONNECT VACUUM HOSES TO EGR VACUUM MODULATOR
Connect the three vacuum hoses to the proper locations.

INSPECTION OF EGR VALVE
(USA Spec.)
1. DISCONNECT CABLE FROM NEGATIVE TERMINAL OFBATTERY
CAUTION: Work must be started after approx. 20 se-
conds or longer from the time the ignition switch is
turned to the ºLOCKº position and the negative (±) termi-
nal cable is disconnected from the battery.
2. DISCONNECT EGR VALVE CONNECTOR
3. INSPECT EGR VALVE RESISTANCE Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between termi-
nal B1 (or B2) and other terminals (S1, S2, S3 and S4).
Resistance (Cold): 19.9±23.4

4. DRAIN ENGINE COOLANT (See page CO±6)
5. REMOVE EGR VALVE (a) Disconnect the following hoses:(1) Water by±pass hose (from ISC valve) from the EGR
valve
(2) Water by±pass hose (from rear water by±pass joint) from the EGR valve
(b) Remove the two nuts, EGR valve and gasket.
6. INSPECT EGR VALVE
A. Visually inspect EGR valve Check for sticking and heavy carbon deposits.
If a problem is found, replace the EGR valve assembly.

3. INSPECT EGR VALVECheck for sticking and heavy carbon deposits.
If a problem is found, replace the EGR valve assembly.
4. REINSTALL EGR VALVE (a) Place a new gasket on the EGR valve adaptor.
NOTICE:
w Do not touch the adaptor and EGR valve surfaces of the
gasket with your hand.
w Align the port holes of the gasket and adaptor.
Be careful of the installation direction.
(b) Install the EGR valve with the two nuts.
Torque: 18 N Vm (185 kgf Vcm, 13 ft Vlbf)
(c) Install the vacuum modulator bracket to the EGR valve.
(d) Connect the following hoses:
(1) Vacuum hose (from VSV) to EGR valve
(2) Vacuum hose (from VSV) to EGR vacuum modula- tor
(3) Vacuum hose (from EGR vacuum modulator) to EGR valve
(4) Water by±pass hose (from ISC valve) to the EGR
valve
