Operation cessive noise is fault of air injection system, discon­
nect drive belt and operate engine.
CAUTION:
Do not lubricate air injection pump. Wipe
all oil off of pump
housing.
Oil in the pump
will
cause
rapid deterioration and failure.

CAUTION:
Completely cover the air pump before

cleaning
the engine or underhood compartment. Refer to the Component Removal/Installation section
of this group for air pump replacement procedures.

CHECK
VALVE—AIR
INJECTION
TUBE
A check valve (Fig. 1) is located on each of the air
injection downstream tubes. The check valve has a one-way diaphragm which pre­
vents hot exhaust gases from backing up into the hose and pump. The check valve will protect the system if
the air injection pump belt fails, an air hose ruptures or exhaust system pressure becomes abnormally high.

TESTING
CHECK
VALVE
The check valves are not repairable. To determine
condition of valve, remove the rubber air tube from
the inlet side of each check valve. Start the engine. If
exhaust gas is escaping through the inlet side of
valve, it must be replaced.
Refer to the Component Removal/Installation section
of this group for check valve replacement procedures.

EGR
VALVE

REMOVAL

The EGR valve and the electric EGR transducer
(EET) are serviced as one unit.
(1) Disconnect vacuum hose to EGR valve/trans­
ducer assembly. Note position of hoses on EGR valve
and transducer for easier installation.
(2) Remove EGR mounting bolts (Fig. 5).

(3) Remove EGR valve and gasket. Discard old
gasket. Clean intake manifold mating surface and
check for cracks.

INSTALLATION
(1) Place new EGR gasket on intake manifold. (2) Install EGR valve. Tighten mounting bolts to
23 N*m (200 in. lbs.) torque. (3) Connect vacuum hose to valve/transducer as­
sembly.

TUBE-GAS POWERED ENGINES

REMOVAL
(1) Remove air filter housing.
(2) Remove the spark plug cable loom and plug ca­
bles from valve cover mounting stud at rear of right
valve cover. Position spark plug cables to top of valve cover.
(3) Disconnect two vacuum hoses at exhaust gas
recirculation (EGR) valve. (4) Remove 2 EGR valve mounting bolts (Fig. 5)
and remove EGR valve. Discard old gasket.
(5) Disconnect electrical connector at engine oil
pressure sending unit.
(6) To prevent damage to oil pressure sending unit,
a special tool, such as number C-4597 must be used
(Fig. 6). Remove sending unit from engine.
(7) Loosen EGR tube mounting nut at intake man­
ifold (Fig. 7).

(8) Remove EGR tube mounting bolts at exhaust
manifold (Fig. 7) and remove EGR tube.

INSTALLATION
(1) Clean the EGR tube and exhaust manifold (at
EGR tube mounting point) of any old gasket mate­

rial.
(2)
Install a new gasket to exhaust manifold end of
EGR tube. (3) Install EGR tube to both manifolds. Tighten
mounting nut at intake manifold. Tighten two
mounting bolts at exhaust manifold to 23 N»m (204 in. lbs.) torque.
(4) Coat the threads of the oil pressure sending
unit with thread sealant. Do not allow any of the
thread sealant to get into the sending unit opening
or the opening at the engine. Install sending unit to
