push one end of the blue silicone vacuum

hose through the drilled hole in the side of

the pressure chamber, until half its length (6 inches)

is inside the pressure chamber. once this hose is

started through the hole, it will be easier to reach

inside the pressure chamber and pull it through.

When the hose is positioned through the hole,

run a bead of silicone sealant around the

hose, where it enters the inside of the pressure

chamber.

temporarily install the pressure chamber

on the intake manifold. make sure the base

gasket and new egr hold-down studs (supplied

with the banks sidewinder turbo system) are in

place. check that the pressure chamber sits

squarely against the gasket and will contact it

before tightening it down. do not use any spacers or

washers between the egr studs and the mounting

ears of the egr valve. see

figure 5.

Lift the pressure chamber from the intake

manifold and push the inner half of the blue

silicone hose over the nipple on top of the egr valve.

remove any hose clamps or spring clips that may

have previously been used on the hose-to-nipple

connection. see

figure 5

install the pressure chamber over the studs,

secure with two sealing washers,

two different types of egr control are found on the

gM 6.2l light duty diesels, vacuum switched and

pulse width modulated. the type of system used

can be identified by observing the cluster of factory

installed solenoid valves above the rear of the left

(driver’s side) engine valve cover. see figure 6 for

system identification. once your system type has

been determined, plumb the new solenoid valve as

shown in the appropriate system diagram, then pro-

ceed to the final step for the electrical hook-up.

Note: the ePR (heat riser valve) must be in place for
the system to operate properly. Make sure you have
the proper Banks exhaust cross-over pipe that will
allow the ePR valve to mount in place on the driver’s
side exhaust manifold outlet. the vacuum line to the
ePR must be attached to the ePR valve and the ePR
solenoid.

vacuuM SwITchED Egr SySTEM

Vacuum switched egr systems can be identified by

the presence of two solenoid valves over the rear

of the left (driver’s side) engine valve cover. (if your

engine has three solenoid valves at this location, it

used the pulse width modulated egr system; pro-

ceed directly to the instructions covering the pulse

width modulated egr system.)

use the black spring band clamp to secure the blue

silicone hose. use the green clamps on the neo-

prene hose. the neoprene hose supplied need not

be used if the existing neoprene vacuum line on the

vehicle is long enough and in good condition. when

the vacuum plumbing is completed, move on to the

appropriate wiring diagram,

pulse width modulated egr systems can be identi-

fied by the presence of three solenoid valves over

the rear of the left (driver’s side) valve cover. (if your

engine has only two solenoid valves at this location,

it uses the Vacuum switched egr system; go back

to the section covering the Vacuum switched egr

plumbing.)
