By-Pass Valve

Start engine, depress accelerator to floor and quickly release (or manually move throttle linkage from under hood). Air should blow out bypass valve atmospheric port for a few seconds after throttle valves are quickly closed. If air comes out for longer than 5 seconds, or does not come out at all, replace by-pass valve.
