Discharge Tubing/Manifold AIR Injection Modification

(continued)

H. Align all tubes and aftercooler core and tighten

all clamps. Close the snaps located on the
front of the heat sleeve/blanket.

Using a small amount of pipe thread sealant,
thread the female end of the factory diverter
valve onto the supplied 90

° compression fitting.

J. Slide the factory air pump check valve (if

equipped) into the 3/4” end of the 180

° elbow

previously installed onto the factory air pump.

If the vehicle is not equipped with a check valve
(earlier models), insert the supplied 3/4” hose
barb union into the hose. From the check valve
(or barb union), use the supplied 3/4” x 6”
length of hose to join the diverter valve and air
pump together.

K. Reattach the brake booster vacuum hose to

the booster by routing it up over the top of the
aftercooler core. Trim hose length if necessary.
