EGR System

Exhaust gases are recirculated through return tube to intake manifold as a function of engine load. Flow of exhaust gases is controlled by means of diaphragm valve. Vacuum at carburetor (forward carburetor on six cylinder models) port actuates diaphragm through a connecting tube. Cyclone filter serves to cool exhaust gases and to filter out any particles.
