EGR test

So while looking for my miss that I have on my 93 7.5 superduty, I hooked a vacuum line up to the EGR and pumped it down, the engine bogged down but didn't stall out, is this correct? I thought I would cause the engine to shut down?????

I would assume that bogging down indicates that the valve is functioning. On me 5.8l when testing the EGR I was able to get it to essentially stall for about 1/2 a sec on one stroke, and then on the next the engine continued running, but barely. That's just from my personal experience though. Others may be able to add more.

As demonhawk stated, its working.

If it stumbles or stalls, then the valve is working.
