EGR SYSTEM INSPECTION
1. CHECK AND CLEAN FILTER IN EGR VACUUM
MODULATOR
(a) Check the filter for contamination or damage.
(b) Using compressed air, clean the filter.
HINT: Install the filter with the coarser surface facing
the atmospheric side (outward).
2. PREPARATION
Using a 3±way connector, connect a vacuum gauge
to the hose between the EGR valve and VSV.
3. CHECK SEATING OF EGR VALVE
Start the engine and check that the engine starts and
runs at idle.
6. CHECK VSV AND EGR VACUUM MODULATOR
WITH HOT ENGINE
(a) Warm up the engine.
(b) Check that the vacuum gauge indicates low vacuum
at 2,500 rpm. 5. CHECK VSV
(a) The engine coolant temperature should be below
60C (140F) (A/T) or 55C (131 F) (M/T).
(b) Check that the vacuum gauge indicates zero at 2.500
rpm. 4. CONNECT TERMINALS TE1 AND E1
Using SST, connect terminals TE 1 and E 1 of the data
link connector 1.

VSV INSPECTION (California)
1. REMOVE VSV
(a) Disconnect the following connectors and hoses:
(1) VSV for EGR
(A) connector
(2) VSV for fuel pressure control
(B) connector
(3) Vacuum hose (from EGR valve) from port E of
VSV (A)
(4) Vacuum hose (from port ªaº of EGR vacuum
modulator) from port G of VSV (A)
(5) Vacuum hose (from fuel pressure regulator) from
port E of VSV (B)
(6) Vacuum hose (from air intake chamber) from port
G of VSV (B)
(b) Remove the bolt and VSV assembly. (c) Disconnect the vacuum hose port R of the EGR
vacuum modulator and connect port R directly to the
intake manifold with another hose.
(d) Check that the vacuum gauge indicates high vacuum
at 2,500 rpm.
HINT: As a large amount of exhaust gas enters, the
engine will misfire slightly.
(e) Remove the vacuum gauge, and reconnect the
vacuum hoses to the proper locations.
8. DISCONNECT TERMINALS TE1 AND E1
Remove the SST.
SST 09843±18020
IF NO PROBLEM IS FOUND WITH THIS
INSPECTION, SYSTEM IS NORMAL; OTHERWISE
INSPECT EACH PART 7. CHECK EGR VALVE
(a) Apply vacuum directly to the EGR valve with the
engine idling.
(b) Check that the engine runs rough or dies.
(c) Reconnect the vacuum hoses to the proper locations.

VSV INSPECTION (Except California)
1. REMOVE VSV
(a) Disconnect the following connector and hoses:
(1) VSV connector
(2) Vacuum hose (from EGR valve) from port E of
VSV
(3) Vacuum hose (from port ªQº of EGR vacuum
modulator) from port G of VSV 2. INSPECT VSV
A. Inspect VSV for open circuit
Using an ohmmeter, check that there is continuity
between the terminals.
Resistance (Cold):
33±39
If there is no continuity, replace the VSV.
B. Inspect VSV for ground
Using an ohmmeter, check that there is no continuity
between each terminal and the body.
If there is continuity, replace the VSV.
(b) Apply battery voltage across the terminals.
(c) Check that air flows from port E to the filter.
If operation is not as specified, replace the VSV.
3. REINSTALL VSVC. Inspect VSV operation
(a) Check that air flows from port E to port G.

EGR VALVE INSPECTION
1. REMOVE EGR VALVE
Check for sticking and heavy carbon deposits.
If a problem is found, replace the valve.
2. REINSTALL EGR VALVE WITH NEW GASKET

EGR VACUUM MODULATOR INSPECTION
CHECK EGR VACUUM MODULATOR OPERATION
(a) Disconnect the vacuum hoses from ports P, Q and R
of the EGR vacuum modulator.
(b) Block ports P and R with your finger.
(c) Blow air into port Q, and check that the air passes
through to the air filter side freely.
(d) Start the engine, and maintain speed at 2.500 rpm.
(e) Repeat the above test. Check that there is a strong
resistance to air flow.
(f) Reconnect the vacuum hoses to the proper locations.
