Air Injection Solenoid Valve

  1. Vacuum control valve is normally closed when not energized. Valve may come with or without controlled bleed. Unstable idle may result from a leaking AIR solenoid valve. An electrical malfunction with valve should set a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).
  2. If unstable idle exists, remove vacuum hose from valve and plug hose. Warm engine to normal operating temperature. If idle becomes smoother, replace valve.
