EGR Dump Valve

Used on some models, the EGR dump valve is connected in series with the vacuum source and the EGR valve. Valve is used to eliminate EGR function at low vacuum levels. When vacuum drops below a predetermined level, the valve "dumps" vacuum rather than allowing it to flow to EGR valve.
