Secondary Air Injection System

The secondary air injection system pumps fresh air into the exhaust system to help reduce exhaust emissions.

Depending on the model, the air can be injected at one or more locations. Early systems used a belt-driven pump with air being directed by vacuum-operated switching valves. Newer vehicles use an electric pump and if needed, computer-controlled switching valves.
