Chevrolet El Camino EGR Valve
The EGR Valve in Chevrolet El Camino cars regulates or controls the amount of back flow of exhaust gases to the combustion chamber in an effort to minimize air borne pollutants. One technique known as exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR), reduces Nitrogen oxide by recycling part of the exhaust gas to reduce combustion temperatures. Contrary to the basic orifice jets, the EGR technology has evolved to complex valves that change with inlet air conditions of an engine. Althogh EGR has been helpful in achieving the required level of emissions, some of the current engines, including Chrysler Pentastar 3.6, do not necessarily require it. Some sort of maintenance, like cleaning or changing EGR valve which can get clogged from time to time, is required for the optimal performance.

Chevrolet El Camino EGR Valve Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: What is the purpose and functioning of the EGR Vacuum Solenoid and EGR Valve on Chevrolet El Camino?A: The EGR system reduces NOx emissions by recirculating exhaust gas back into the combustion cycle. The EGR valve on the intake manifold should be checked for proper functioning. The engine should lose speed or stall when manually depressing the EGR diaphragm. The vacuum signal to the EGR valve should be checked and the vacuum hose and lines inspected for issues. The thermal vacuum switch regulates the EGR valve based on engine temperature and should be tested with a vacuum gauge. The EGR valve or thermal vacuum switch should be removed following the necessary steps and a new gasket and thread sealer used when reinstalling. The EGR system requires minimal maintenance with occasional inspections of vacuum hoses and valves.
