Replacement
1. Disconnect the vacuum hose from the recirculation valve, which is located on the left side of the intake manifold. If necessary, remove the air filter to improve access to the valve. On some models, access can be improved by removing the backpressure valve (see subsection 6.4.2.4.2).
2. Unscrew the connection nuts and disconnect the recirculation tube and the counterpressure valve tube from the recirculation valve.
3. Loosen and remove the two mounting nuts/bolts and washers and remove the valve from the intake manifold. Remove the gasket and discard it.
4. Installation is carried out in the reverse order of removal. Use a new gasket when installing.
