Question Auxillary Air Regulator

Hey guys,

Can anyone tell me the purpose of the auxillary air regulator and if possible supply a wiring diagram for it as well. I'vve got a new loom for it but no where for it to plug into. I'm part way through a minor rebuild which started with just replacing the radiator but i found so many other things that needed attention that i thought i may as well repair or replace everything on top of the motor and in front. Here are some pics of where i'm up to so far.

Regards, Brenton

looks great. I believe it is what gives the motor extra air to increase the idle at warm up.

Yup, that sounds right to me. You can test them by putting them in a freezer, the remove it and watch the small valve that closes once warm.

sorry guys, wrong air thingy, my mistake. The one i am interested in is the electric air valve. It hangs on the cross brace and has a small wiring loom attached to it.

I think that one kicks up the idle when the ac is turned on.. mines gone, so is the AC, that why I removed it.. It was a LONG time ago
BTW I can not believe you had a video of that lol

Right again Pete! Quick search on Youtube, that's all.
