2001 Chevrolet Express 1/2 Ton Van V6-4.3L VIN WSECTION Operation
The EGR valve will open when the conditions of operation have been met. This allows the exhaust gasses to re-enter the combustion chamber. When too much exhaust gas is allowed to enter the chamber, the proper combustion will not occur. For this reason, only very little exhaust gas is allowed to re-enter the combustion chamber.
