Pressure Control Flap

A vacuum operated pressure control flap is located in the air guide housing to increase the vacuum in intake manifold. When the engine is running in EGR mode, the pressure control flap closes the fresh air duct. In closed condition, a minimum opening remains between pressure control flap and air guide housing.

NOTE: DO NOT manually operate the linkage on vacuum control unit for pressure control flap.
