Exhaust gas recirculation system
Note
♦
The control of the exhaust gas recirculation system is carried
out by the Direct injection diesel system control unit -J248- via
the Exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve -N18- .
♦
The tapered plunger of the Exhaust gas recirculation valve -
N18- enables the cross-section variation in function of the
different plunger positions.
♦
The control by pulses makes feasible all the valve opening
positions.
♦
Always replace self-locking nuts.
