EGR PORT VACUUM CHECK
1. Disconnect the vacuum hose (white stripe) from the throttle
body EGR vacuum nipple and connect a hand vacuum
pump to the nipple.
2. Start the engine and check that the vacuum remains
fairly constant after racing the engine.
NOTE
If vacuum changes, it is possible that the throttle body
EGR port may be clogged and require cleaning.
EGR CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE CHECK
NOTE
When disconnecting the vacuum hose, always make a mark
so that it can be reconnected at original position.
1. Disconnect the vacuum hose (yellow stripe, white stripe,
green stripe) from the solenoid valve.
2. Disconnect the harness connector.
3. Connect a hand vacuum pump to the nipple to which
the white-striped vacuum hose was connected.
4. Check airtightness by applying a vacuum with voltage
applied directly from the battery to the EGR control
solenoid valve and without applying voltage.
