Variable Induction Control Valve: Description and Operation
LH Front Side Of Engine:
Intake Manifold Tuning Valve:
PURPOSE
The tuning valve (rotary solenoid device) is electrically controlled by the control module based on RPM and TP signal inputs, for accurate switching capability at optimum switching points to enable either a "split" or "single" plenum condition
OPERATION
During the low and high end of the RPM range, the control module de-energize 5 the valve and creates a "split" plenum condition that provides for peak torque along with increased peak horsepower.
During the mid RPM range, the control module energizes the valve, thus creating a "single" tuning plenum condition that provides for mid RPM range peak torque.
CONSTRUCTION
The Intake Manifold Tuning assembly consists of:
- control module
- Intake Manifold Tuning Valve Relay
- Intake Manifold Tuning Valve Solenoid (Assembly)
- Upper and Lower Intake Manifolds
