Ported EGR Valve

This valve is operated by a vacuum signal from carburetor EGR port which actuates valve diaphragm. As vacuum increases enough to overcome power spring, valve is opened, allowing EGR flow. Amount of flow is dependent on pintle or poppet position which is a direct result of vacuum signal.
