EGR Venturi Vacuum Amplifier

Because venturi vacuum is not sufficient to operate EGR valve diaphragm, a vacuum amplifier is used. This amplifier steps up the signal of venturi vacuum to a level that can control the EGR valve. This amplifier also contains a check and relief valve that opens whenever vacuum signal is equal to or greater than manifold vacuum.
