Abstract

An exhaust gas control valve for regulating a flow of exhaust gas includes a housing having an interior wall defining a housing interior, a yoke disposed in the housing interior and having a length and an axis extending along the length, with the yoke being moveable between a first and second yoke position. The exhaust gas control valve further includes a valve member including a valve shaft and a valve body. The valve member is moveable between a first valve position and a second valve position. The exhaust gas control valve also includes a retainer coupled to the yoke, and a biasing member disposed in the housing interior and coupled to the yoke and the retainer to bias the yoke and the retainer in opposite directions, with the biasing member being configured to prevent free play of the yoke and the valve member with respect to said housing.
