2. Disconnect the engine harness vacuum-to-EGR system module connector.

3. Disconnect the EGR system module tube-to-EGR system module fitting.
- To install, tighten to 40 Nm (30 lb-ft).


4. NOTE: Upon installation, make sure to install the correct EGR system module mounting gasket. Even though varying gaskets may be very similar, orifice sizes may differ thus causing performance issues.

- To install, tighten to 25 Nm (18 lb-ft).


5. NOTICE: Do not use metal scrapers, wire brushes, power abrasive disc or other abrasive means to clean the sealing surfaces. These tools cause scratches and gouges which make leak paths. Use a plastic scraping tool to remove all traces of the old gasket.

Carefully clean the EGR system module sealing surfaces.


6. To install, reverse the removal procedure.
