This valve is right behind the thermostat housing and to the right of the water temp sensor. Is this correct. ??? Thanks very much for your help.
I just went outside and looked at mine: The top port is the one that goes to/from your EGR valve on the exhaust manifold. That brown plastic hose should go between the valve cover and the firewall, then connect to the EGR valve. I'm not sure where the bottom one goes -- I couldn't follow it under everything on the intake side of the engine. (my guess is that it goes to a vacuum source on the intake manifold.)
