The vacuum control valve is located on the fuel injection pump. It vents vacuum to atmosphere as throttle opens. With increasing engine load, vent size increases, decreasing vacuum signal to EGR valve. This reduces EGR as engine load increases. The Black plastic line leads to passenger compartment where vacuum is vented.
