Re: [DMCForum] Aux Air Valve



Huh what?  The heater core valve is vacuum actuated.  The vacuum advance
has a solenoid.  

But I knew what you meant at least.

Remember the gizmo on my car for fast idle? That's an axuiliary air
valve. Is not part of original DeLo design, but since I'm running a
manual idle speed circuit I need one. Was very common on all other
fuel injected vehicles of that vintage. Mine came from a BMW.

Small photo's in #5939's photo album on DMCNEWS group.

Is just a solenoid or coil operated valve, much like a heater core
shutoff valve. When open, additional air is allowed to bypass throttle
plates, increasing idle speed. I take off from a 3/8" nipple added
just after air sensor plate (before throttle plates), then re-enter
intake at unused nipple on driver intake rail (my R30 doesn't use
stock DeLo vacuum system).
