Product Details

Standard Ignition VS18 is an EGR valve control solenoid used to regulate exhaust gas recirculation flow on applications such as 1989-1993 Chevrolet Caprice, 1988-1992 Chevrolet Camaro, 1988-1992 Pontiac Firebird, 1991-1993 Buick Roadmaster, and 1990-1992 Cadillac Brougham. It also serves 1991-1992 Chevrolet Commercial Chassis, 1991-1992 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser, 1992-1993 Cadillac Commercial Chassis, and 1993 Cadillac Fleetwood. This part cross-references 2-2307 and EGR232 for the same application.

Common Symptoms This Part May Address

  • EGR valve not opening or closing at the correct time
  • Emission-related fault codes tied to EGR control
  • Rough idle caused by improper exhaust gas recirculation flow
  • Driveability issues related to vacuum control in the EGR circuit
  • Failed or leaking solenoid connections in the emission system

Installation Notes

Verify connector style, terminal layout, hose routing, and mounting location before installation. Match the vehicle application exactly, especially on Chevrolet Caprice, Camaro, and Pontiac Firebird models where emission-system configurations can vary by year. Inspect vacuum hoses and electrical terminals for wear or corrosion during replacement.
