Valve for the charcoal gas fumes filter canister.

No, that's the A/C "extra air in to compensate for the drag of the A/C belt thingy".

todwic 12-17-2003 05:24 PM

"extra air in to compensate for the drag of the A/C belt when you turn the A/C on thingy" I mean. I'm assuming that the car came out with A/C.

TCMdocs944 12-17-2003 05:30 PM

Yes indeed ----A/C a must in Florida.

So......If it wasn't working I would get a significant rpm drop at idle when the a/c cycles on...

Yes......


Ground closest to the shocktower?

TCMdocs944 12-17-2003 05:31 PM

Oh yeh Todwic....I assume A/C comes standard in the 3rd plane of hades.


......If you know the right people.

todwic 12-17-2003 05:32 PM

aye, rpm drop. If one of em is brown, that's the ground, other than that, I can't really say. Get jiggy w/ voltmeter.

todwic 12-17-2003 05:34 PM

aye, standard. I keep hoping they kick me out for opening up the ice water stand, but I musta been really, really bad.

Auxiliary Air Solenoid. Energized when the A/C compressor clutch is energized. Allows additional airflow into the intake to compensate for the additional mechanical load from the A/C compressor.
