Intake Air Distributor

The air distributor is a system of tubing that connects the mixture control unit with each fuel injector. The idle speed adjuster controls how much air enters this system, and the cold start valve injects additional fuel during warm-up. The air distributor terminates in a sleeve around each fuel injector that ensures the injected air mixes with the injected fuel.
