Re: what is a "vac rec valve" ?
It's the "Vac Reg Valve" and it is the thing near the EGR valve that controls flow of engine ported vacuum to the valve. The inlet is at the bottom, and there needs to be a "T" somewhere in the top line running to the EGR valve so the sensor that is connected to the regulator valve knows whether the EGR valve is receiving engine vacuum or not.
It's also known as an Electronic Vacuum Regulator Valve, or EVRV...
