ABSTRACT:
In a dual displacement internal combustion engine which operates on four cylinders at selected times and eight cylinders at other times, the air induction passage creates a subatmospheric pressure signal which is higher during the four cylinder mode than during the eight cylinder mode. An exhaust gas recirculation control valve is operated from that pressure signal, and a solenoid valve opens a port from the atmosphere to increase the pressure signal when operating on eight cylinders to provide similar operating pressure under both modes of operation.
