NOTEThe duty ratio is the ON duration ratio of 16.7 Hz pulse or
T2/T1.The higher the duty ratio, the more mean current flows to the
boost meter. and as a result, the boost meter reads the higher
value.The smaller is the duty ratio, the boost meter reads the smaller

NOTEThis illustration indicates Non-Turbo models.7EMOO15The EGR control valve is a diaphragm that functions
to control the flow of
EGR gases by opening and
closing the valve according to the negative pressure
(vacuum) acting upon the partitioned chamber.When the negative pressure becomes stronger than
the spring force, the valve opens, as shown in the
illustration, and the exhaust gases can flow.

THERM0 VALVE
The therm0 valve functions in response to the temperature of
the engine coolant. thus controlling the negative pressure
acting upon the
EGR control valve.
The valve opens at a temperature of
65°C (149°F) or lower, and
closes at
65°C (149°F) or higher.
