Single Diaphragm EGR Valve
This type uses a single diaphragm connected to the valve by a
shaft. Diaphragm is spring-loaded to keep valve closed in the absence
of vacuum. As throttle valves open and engine speed increases, vacuum
is applied to the EGR vacuum diaphragm, opening the EGR valve. This
vacuum signal comes from a ported vacuum source. Variations in the
vacuum signal control the amount of exhaust gas that is recirculated.
See Fig. 7 .
Verify EGR valve is present and not modified or purposely
damaged. Ensure thermal vacuum switches, pressure transducers, speed
switches, etc., (if applicable) are not by-passed or modified. Ensure
vacuum hose(s) to EGR valve is not plugged.

Dual Diaphragm EGR Valve
This type uses 2 diaphragms with different effective areas
and 2 vacuum sources. Although similar to the single diaphragm type,
the second diaphragm is added below the upper diaphragm and is rigidly
attached to the valve seat. See Fig. 8. These diaphragms form a vacuum
chamber which is connected to manifold vacuum.
During highway cruising when manifold vacuum is high in the
center chamber, manifold vacuum tends to pull the valve closed.
However, the vacuum signal applied to the top side of the upper
diaphragm overcomes the downward spring force and the manifold vacuum
pull, due to the diaphragm's larger piston. This regulates the amount
of EGR.
When manifold vacuum is low during acceleration, the higher
vacuum signal opens the valve, permitting more EGR. When manifold
vacuum is high during highway cruising, the valve is only partially
opened, reducing the amount of EGR.

PISTON & CONNECTING ROD INSTALLATION
Cylinders must be honed prior to piston installation. See
CYLINDER HONING under CYLINDER BLOCK in this article.
Install upper connecting rod bearings. Lubricate upper
bearings with engine oil. Install lower bearings in rod caps. Ensure
bearing tabs are properly seated. Position piston ring gaps according
to manufacturers recommendations. See Fig. 16. Lubricate pistons,
rings and cylinder walls.

INTRODUCTION TO MOTORIST ASSURANCE PROGRAM (MAP)
OVERVIEW OF MOTORIST ASSURANCE PROGRAM
The Motorist Assurance Program is the consumer outreach
effort of the Automotive Maintenance and Repair Association, Inc.
(AMRA). Participation in the Motorist Assurance Program is drawn from
retailers, suppliers, independent repair facilities, vehicle
manufacturers and industry associations.
Our organization's mission is to strengthen the relationship
between the consumer and the auto repair industry. We produce
materials that give motorists the information and encouragement to
take greater responsibility for their vehicles-through proper,
manufacturer-recommended, maintenance. We encourage participating
service and repair shops (including franchisees and dealers) to adopt
(1) a Pledge of Assurance to their Customers and (2) the Motorist
Assurance Program Standards of Service. All participating service
providers have agreed to subscribe to this Pledge and to adhere to the
promulgated Standards of Service demonstrating to their customers that
they are serious about customer satisfaction.
These Standards of Service require that an inspection of the
vehicle's (problem) system be made and the results communicated to the\
customer according to industry standards. Given that the industry did
not have such standards, the Motorist Assurance Program successfully
promulgated industry inspection communication standards in 1994-95 for
the following systems: Exhaust, Brakes, ABS, Steering and Suspension,
Engine Maintenance and Performance, HVAC, and Electrical Systems.
Further, revisions to all of these inspection communication standards
are continually re-published. In addition to these, standards for
Drive Train and Transmissions have recently been promulgated.
Participating shops utilize these Uniform Inspection & Communication
