I got off from work early today and thought I would finish up my alluminum sunvisor mounts, I was wrong. I picked up an extra decel valve and decided to open it up. I plugged mine because It was all jacked up. I know most dont use their decel valve anymore, but thought if nobody had opened one up and posted it here before, this might help the ones that still have them.

QUOTE(busaslidr @ Feb 6 2004, 10:27 AM) So what does a decel valve do?? It momentarily bleeds air into the intake when you snap the throttle shut. This reduces emissions but also makes the rpm's fall SLOWLY when you close the throttle. The only benefit to drivability is it keeps the rpms from dipping below idle speed when you snap the throttle shut quickly. The downside is this makes shifting slower, and adds more work/wear to the tranny syncros (IMHO). Some take their decel valve off and throw them away. Personally I think that's the wrong approach. You should take it off and hit it with the biggest hammer you can find. Then throw it away. -Ben M. |
