  1. Remove HIC valve from air cleaner. With valve temperature below 81°F (27°C), block intake manifold port and blow through HAI port. No air should escape from atmospheric port.
  2. Heat HIC valve in hot water. DO NOT allow water inside valve. Block HAI port and blow through intake manifold port. When valve temperature is between 81-122°F (27-50°C), a small amount of air should pass through atmospheric port. When valve is above 185°F (85°C), HIC valve is fully opened and a larger amount of air should pass through atmospheric port.
