I know this has been covered repeatedly..
I guess I'm not good at searching... 1) I'm looking for btdt ideas on plugging the air ports on the 75 2.0 motor... 2) also would love to know if I need to readjust the mixture or do anything to the FI after I plug these. thanks in advance brant |

I think the air nozzles delivered air to the exhaust ports, not the conbustion chamber, to promote additional combustion of the exhaust gases. Their removal should not affect the mixture in the chamber, but emissions are another matter.
