Air Switching Valve Removal/Installation
Air Switching Valve Inspection
If the air switching valve [A] is normal, check the wiring for continuity (see Air Switching Valve Circuit).
Special Tool - Hand Tester: 57001-1394
If the wiring is good, check the ECU for its ground and power supply (see ECU Power Supply Inspection in the Fuel System (DFI) chapter).
If the ground and power supply are good, replace the ECU (see ECU Removal/Installation in the Fuel System (DFI) chapter).

Exhaust Butterfly Valve Actuator Resistance InspectionSpring Plate Free Play Measurement
Insufficient clutch free play will cause the engine braking
effect to be more sudden, resulting in rear wheel hop. On
the other hand, if the free play is excessive, the clutch lever
may feel “spongy” or pulsate when pulled.

Fuel Type
Use clean, fresh unleaded gasoline
with a minimum Antiknock Index of 90.
The Antiknock Index is posted on service
station pumps. The octane rating
of a gasoline is a measure of its resistance
to detonation or “knocking.” The
Antiknock Index is an average of the
Research Octane Number (R ...
