Idle Speed Boost Valves

  1. To test boost valve No. I, engine oil temperature must be at 176°F (80°C) minimum. If equipped, A/C system must be off. Run engine at idle speed. Turn on all electrical units except A/C system. Turn in idle speed adjusting screw to lower idle. At 750 RPM, boost valve No. I should open and idle speed will increase.
  2. Pinch shut outlet air hose after "T" connector. Engine speed should drop. Leaving air hose pinched shut, raise engine idle speed to 870-930 RPM. Open air hose. Idle speed should increase. When 1050 RPM is reached, boost valve No. I should close and engine speed should drop to 870-930 RPM.
