[Shotimes] EGR valve

[Paul L Fisher]

That should be true at idle. What you need to do is suck on the valve itself
and see if the engine starts bogging down or even stalls. If so, the valve
itself is OK. If not, it could still be OK and the passages clogged.

Steve,
Thanks for the link and to all that has responded on this issue. I did pull 
the vacum line off the EGR valvle and blew and sucked through the hose to
see 
if it was clogged. It wasn't. The engine didn't do anything different when I

removed the vacum line from the EGR valve. I also didn't detect any vacum 
pressure at all no hissing nothing to the touch nada. Is this normal?

Thanks
Rick
