The EGR Valve in the Nissan 300ZX controls the flow of exhaust gas into the engine, lowering temperature and reducing NOx emissions. The EGR Valve, located in a passage connecting the exhaust system and the intake manifold, opens to allow inert exhaust to mix with the air-fuel charge. This occupies space that would otherwise contain oxygen, which helps prevent peak temperatures. In turn, this helps to prevent the formation of oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and engine knock. The EGR Valve is central to the Nissan emission control strategy. The EGR control is important for the smooth running and emissions compliance of the Nissan 300ZX. A faulty EGR Valve on any Nissan 300ZX will cause drivability problems. The valve stays closed for cold starts, idle, and wide-open throttle. However, under steady cruising conditions or light acceleration, it enables the recirculation of approximately 5-15 percent of exhaust to balance emissions and drivability. The operation of the system is regulated by engine controls that operate an internal valve element which is driven by either a vacuum diaphragm or an electric motor to ensure that exhaust flow will occur only under the right conditions. The 300ZX may suffer from rough idle, stalling, hesitation, detonation, or elevated NOx levels and may cause warning lights to illuminate if the EGR Valve is stuck from carbon deposits or fails to open or close properly.
