A curved passage constituting part of an exhaust gas recirculation passage is installed inside a suction passage (46) in the downstream of an electronic control throttle valve (2), of which initial position is the fully opened position, and an exhaust gas recirculation flow control valve (416 A) is installed in the cylindrical portion extending coaxially from the curved passage into a suction passage (46). The control valve (416 A) is a butterfly valve driven by a motor (416 Dm) via a reduction gear mechanism. In addition, the control valve opening is sensed by a sensor (416 E) and cooled exhaust gas flow is sensed by a flow sensor at the outlet of an exhaust gas cooler (414), and the control of the control vale (416 A) is based on theses sensor signals.
