If defective hoses are found, replace hose

Disconnect hose harness from EGR vacuum
transducer and connect auxiliary vacuum supply. Raise engine rpm to 2000 rpm and hold. Apply 10" Hg vacuum while checking
valve movement. If no valve movement oc­
curs,
replace valve/transducer assy. If valve
opens (approx. 3mm or 1/8" travel), hold
supply vacuum to check for diaphragm
leakage. Valve should remain open 30
seconds or longer. If leakage occurs, replace
valve/transducer assy. If valve is satisfac­
tory, check control system. Remove throttle body and inspect port (slot
type) in throttle bore and associated passage in throttle body. Use suitable sol­
vent to remove deposits and check for flow
with light air pressure. Normal operation
should be restored to EGR system. Refer to Group 14. General Diagnosis "On
Board Diagnostics" to check solenoid.

down through the steel backpressure tube on
the EGR valve while opening and closing the
throttle blade.
(a4) If the sound from the compressed air changes distinctly in step a3, the poppet is leaking
and air is entering the intake manifold. Replace the EGR valve.
Remove tube and visually inspect tube seal
on gasket. Tube end should be uniformally
indented on gasket with no signs of leak. If
signs of exhaust gas leakage are present, replace gaskets and tighten flange nuts to
23 N-m (200 in. lbs.). If an intake plenum
leak persists, replace EGR tube and gaskets,
following installation instructions.
Verify correct hose connections and leak

GENERAL
INFORMATION
The air injection system (Fig. 1) is used on the 5.9L
(V-8) heavy duty cycle (HDC) gas powered engines
only. The air injection system consists of:
• A belt-driven air injection pump • An air relief valve
• Rubber hoses and check valves The check valves (Fig. 1) protect the hoses and in­
jection tubes from hot exhaust gases. The air injection system adds a controlled amount
of air to the exhaust gases aiding oxidation of hydro­
carbons and carbon monoxide in the exhaust stream.
The system does not interfere with the ability of the EGR system to control nitrous oxide (NOx) emis­
sions.
Outside air is drawn into the front of the air injec­
tion pump (Fig. 2) where it is compressed and ex­
pelled into the relief valve (also refer to Air Injection Pump in this group for additional information). Pres­ sure relief holes in the air relief valve (Fig. 2) will
prevent excess downstream pressure.
Air is injected at both of the catalytic convertors
(referred to as downstream). All injected air is routed
by the air relief valve (Figs. 1 or 2).
Downstream air flow assists the oxidation process
in the catalyst, but does not interfere with EGR op­ eration.

AIR INJECTION PUMP
The air pump is mounted on the front of the engine
and driven by a belt connected to the crankshaft pul­
ley (Fig. 1 or 2). Intake air passes through a fan at
the front of the pump. Foreign materials are sepa­ rated from the air by centrifugal force. Air is then
delivered to the air relief valve.
The air injection system is not completely
noiseless. Under normal conditions, noise rises in
pitch as engine speed increases. To determine if ex-

CAUTION:
Do not lubricate air injection pump. Wipe
all oil off of pump
housing.
Oil in the pump
will
cause
rapid deterioration and failure.

CAUTION:
Completely cover the air pump before

cleaning
the engine or underhood compartment. Refer to the Component Removal/Installation section
of this group for air pump replacement procedures.

CHECK
VALVE—AIR
INJECTION
TUBE
A check valve (Fig. 1) is located on each of the air
injection downstream tubes. The check valve has a one-way diaphragm which pre­
vents hot exhaust gases from backing up into the hose and pump. The check valve will protect the system if
the air injection pump belt fails, an air hose ruptures or exhaust system pressure becomes abnormally high.

TESTING
CHECK
VALVE
The check valves are not repairable. To determine
condition of valve, remove the rubber air tube from
the inlet side of each check valve. Start the engine. If
exhaust gas is escaping through the inlet side of
valve, it must be replaced.
Refer to the Component Removal/Installation section
of this group for check valve replacement procedures.
