Summary:An automotive type exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system has two modes of operation, a first one that regulates EGR flow at a constant percentage rate as a function of throttle valve position independently of exhaust gas backpressure changes, and a second one that provides a variable percentage rate of flow of EGR gases in response to changes in exhaust gas backpressures, both modes utilizing carburetor ported vacuum modified by an air bleed device as the EGR valve opening force.
