EGR valve
This is a generic question. Is the EGR valve always open in the cars that
have one? |
Re: EGR valve
Nope. It would making starting a bitch. PCM tells it when to open.

This also reduces engine power. EGR occurs under certain throttle, manifold air pressure, coolant temperature, RPM, and a few other items. A rough approximation might be 1/3 throttle, warm engine, >2000 RPM. -- Does the name Pavlov ring a bell? |
