Just looked at mine and the two vacume pipes next to each other one goes to the diafram and the other goes to a solonoyed that controls when and by how much vacume is allowed to the diafram to when and when not open the egr plunger and by how much . The vacume pipe that goes to the map filter next to the those two is constant and uninterrupted so that the map sensor gets constant information to control turbo boost .however if you remove the diafram and replace it with a household 13 amp fuse its a tight fit but it will stop the egr plunger from opening so in a way deleting the egr valve , I did that to mine in the first week I got my 120 , but being a late 2009 car every 100 miles or so I got a engine light which gave a p0400 code and traction control , stability control lights warning light up but no limp mode, I just used to turn it off with a scanner . Then I got a plug in module that deletes the egr from the ECU and blanked off the egr cooler at the engine , so no more egr operation or engine light with p0400 . |

Had other car work on yesterday evening so only got back to removing the intake manifold / fuel pipes this evening.
Here's pics; what's the verdict?
To clean the carbon from the engine ports should I by right turn it to TDC and then to 180 degrees to close the ports. Which way does the engine rotate again, clockwise or anti?

Thats a lot of carbon build up there due to all that oil blowing through and pushing all the carbon buildup from the egr valve and elbow into the manifold and engine ports . Yes turn it to TDC then 180 as you clean the closed ports , the engine turns clockwise . |

In the pic below, is that the timing mark for the fuel pump, the tiny little triangle cut-out on the pulley and the arrow on the casting behind it? It's hard to see, I only noticed the cut out on the pulley when I looked at the photo on my fone when I went to post it here, I couldn't find it when looking at the actual engine.
The cam mark is the little notch in the pulley and the arrow on the block at the 12 o clock position, yeah?
I have the cam aligned when I took this pic, does the fuel timing mark look a tad out? I'll have a better look when I go back to the engine tomorrow.
Silly question, but when I set it to TDC, which two intake ports are closed that I can clean? As I look directly in at the intake side of the engine and we assume cyl 1 - 4 is from left to right which two will be closed?
And then if I rotate 180 degrees which other 2 are closed then?
And when I look into the closed ports, what should I see or not see that will also indicate to me I definitely have them closed? Eg: If I see the valves does that mean they're closed?

I can't edit. I forgot to ask:
The pulley tab, they're are actually 2 of them, I only circled one in the green box in my pic, what are these 2 tabs for? |

The timing mark on the fuel pump can look slightly out when photo with a phone is taken at an angle . Don't remember which valve is open and closed but you could check by looking it up on fourby 4dirsel in his search engine by typing tdc or try google , if you see the valve try blowing through a straw if you feel the air instantly blows back out its closed if it blows through its open . |
