Air Injection System: Description

Air injection is used during warm-up to improve catalytic converter performance and reduce emissions. The engine is equipped with fuel injection with feedback system (oxygen sensor), so air injection cannot be used while oxygen sensor is operating. System includes a thermal switch, check valve, air injection switching module, air switching valve and air pump.
