Is this "normal"?

I have the Integrated Electronic EGR valve on my 2.8L, the one that was used up until 1991, and I thought I remembered reading somewhere online that when the engine is shut OFF, you should NOT be able to move the EGR diaphragm with your fingers, but I tried to today, and I was able to move it up with no problem...

 

Does this indicate a bad EGR valve?

 

THANKS!:)

Well, no. However, I know for a fact though, if the car is running at an idle and you open the EGR diaphram the car should stumble / stall out. That technique makes sure that the diaphram is flexable / not damaged.
