EGR system

Precautions for installation
1. The valve and stopper must be installed in their
specific orientations. As shown in the figure
above, install the valve and stopper so that they
are located on the left-hand side of the lead
valve.
2. Install the valve by tightening the machine
screw while ensuring that it is evenly positioned
inside the case window.
3. The machine screw must be tightened with
torque of 1.37 ± 0.2 N·m (14 ± 2 kgf·cm).
4. After tightening the machine screw, mark it with
a marker to indicate that it has already been
tightened.

EGR pipe and other connecting elbows
The exhaust gas passage is subject to carbon
deposition when used over time. To remove
deposited carbon from the gas passage, use
compressed air (0.19 MPa (2 kg/cm
2
) or lower). If
the exhaust gas passage is heavily fouled, clean it
by dipping it in carbon cleaner, kerosene, or some
other liquid capable of removing carbon.
NOTICE
• Always be environmentally
responsible.
• Follow the guidelines of the EPA or other
governmental agencies for the proper disposal of
hazardous materials such as engine oil, diesel
fuel and engine coolant. Consult the local
authorities or reclamation facility.
• Never dispose of hazardous materials
irresponsibly by dumping them into a sewer, on
the ground, or into ground water or waterways.
• Failure to follow these procedures may seriously
harm the environment.
■
Installing EGR related components/parts
To install these components/parts, reverse the
disassembly procedure described above: thus
install the lead valve, spacer, EGR valve, EGR pipe,
elbow, exactly in this order.
The EGR system uses steel gaskets at the joints
between its components/parts. When you remove
the system’s components/parts and reinstall them,
replace the steel gaskets between them with new
correct ones.
