Bucky92 Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 Item 2 is the Kanooter Valve! Sorry been waiting to use that for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jxavierf Posted June 21, 2005 Author Share Posted June 21, 2005 Laugh it up fuzz ball! Having fun on my expense......for shame.................thanks for at least looking! (yes that is a Star Wars line) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucky92 Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 I have been looking in my FSM for what #2 is and I am not really coming up with much just possibly the Control Valve assembly????? Shame is I have sitting here on the kitchen floor a complete intake from an EA81 with that part on it..(Sorry Hocrest..shipping it out tomorrow!!))

jxavierf Posted June 21, 2005 Author Share Posted June 21, 2005 Thanks again for looking.....I will definitely upload a better, clearer picture of #2.... One thing I do know about it, is that it has an L shaped rod coming out of it. When the car is off, I can push the rod in; when on, I can't push it at all (at least without breaking it). And it's located just left (that's passenger side left) of the carb. Cheers......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pull the air cleaner off and move some crap out of the way to see it more clearly. Wild guess here.... choke for the carb? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLCraig Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 #2 is the Fast Idle control device for the AC system. When the AC is on it keeps the Idle from getting too low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jxavierf Posted June 22, 2005 Author Share Posted June 22, 2005 Between you and me, we know the true names of these parts.....everyone else is crazy. Question.........if the purge solinoid was defunct, would it result in a slight hesitation when accelerating?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAWalker Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Question.........if the purge solinoid was defunct, would it result in a slight hesitation when accelerating?? That would more likely be a bad accelerator pump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jxavierf Posted June 22, 2005 Author Share Posted June 22, 2005 So what is the purpose of the Purge Solenoid.......seems like an inconsequential expensive piece of garbage ........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAWalker Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 So what is the purpose of the Purge Solenoid.......seems like an inconsequential expensive piece of garbage ........... The Purge Solenoid is for evaporative emissions. The evap emissions system pulls the fuel vapors from the fuel tank an recycles them through the engine to be burned. Don't want those nasty fuel vapors getting into the air. So, yes............ seems like an inconsequential expensive piece of garbage ...........
