Standard Ignition EGV760 EGR Valve

Standard Ignition EGV760 EGR Valve

Standard Ignition EGV760 is a mechanical exhaust gas recirculation valve built for direct-fit replacement on select Ford Pinto and Mercury Bobcat applications. It uses stainless steel valve components, a polyester-reinforced silicone diaphragm, and a reinforced gasket to support reliable sealing and consistent operation in emission control service.

Key Features

• Mechanical EGR valve for emission control service
• Stainless steel internal valve components for added durability
• Polyester-reinforced silicone diaphragm resists thermal aging up to 200°C
• Reinforced gasket included for complete replacement
• Direct-fit design for straightforward installation
• No connector design, with one hose connector and two bolt holes

Detailed Description

The Standard Ignition EGV760 exhaust gas recirculation valve is engineered for vehicles that require a mechanical EGR solution with OE-style fitment. It is a direct replacement for 1974-1975 Ford Pinto and 1975 Mercury Bobcat models, making it a practical choice when servicing emission control systems on these classic applications. This part number, EGV760, is built with stainless steel valve components and a reinforced silicone diaphragm to help maintain performance under elevated exhaust temperatures.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Rough idle caused by EGR valve sticking or poor flow control
• Emission test failures related to EGR system malfunction
• Driveability issues tied to exhaust gas recirculation faults
• Vacuum or sealing problems at the EGR mounting point
• Replacement needs on aging Ford Pinto and Mercury Bobcat EGR systems

Installation Notes and Tips

EGV760 is a mechanical, no-connector EGR valve with one hose connection and two bolt holes. Verify the OE number and mounting pattern before installation, and inspect the mating surface for carbon buildup or damage so the included gasket can seal properly. This direct-fit replacement is intended for 1974-1975 Ford Pinto and 1975 Mercury Bobcat applications listed in the fitment data.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition uses durable stainless steel valve components and a reinforced diaphragm material selected to withstand thermal aging in high-temperature service. The included gasket supports a complete replacement at the mounting point.
