Checking the air induction system
Air injection
The air induction system burns unburned exhaust gases by injecting fresh air (secondary air) into the exhaust port, reducing the emission of hydrocarbons. When there is negative pressure at the exhaust port, the reed valve opens, allowing secondary air to flow into the exhaust port.
The required temperature for burning the unburned exhaust gases is approximately 600 to 700 C (1112 to 1292 F).
