Exhaust Gas RECIRCULATION (EGR) System: Notes

  1. Disconnect Green-striped hose from throttle body and connect hand-held vacuum pump to hose end. Plug nipple where hose was connected to throttle body. When engine is 140°F (60°C) or less and at idle, apply vacuum to disconnected hose. If idle does not change and vacuum bleeds down, system is okay.
  2. When engine is 158°F (70°C) or more and at idle, apply 2 inches Hg. If idle does not change and vacuum holds, system is okay.
  3. Using a vacuum pump, apply 6.8 inches Hg. If idle becomes unstable or engine stalls (and vacuum holds), system is okay.
