Whistling noise
I get a whistling noise at start up. But not all the time and by the time I get out and get the hood opened, it is gone. I did a search and did not see the problem posted, but I could have missed it. If this has been asked before, I apologize.

Does is sound like a dustbuster is on in your glovebox?
|
It could be, it happens at random.

Secondary Air Injection pump activating.
|
That is okay then. right?
|
Yes it is normal, Disco Mike or someone else can give you a technical explanation (or check the "Emissions Control - V8" section of the RAVE)
|
Thanks, I am heading up to the Dixie Run this weekend and wanted to be sure.
|
changing the filter (you have to make a new one) sometimes quiets it down a bit.
|
Check the write up section for a how to on replacing the filter for the SAI.
It is a emissions device, it pumps fresh air into the exhaust to speed up the catalytic converters reaching optimum operating temp. It works like a black smiths bellows on a fire. It only comes on when the engine temp is below "X" degree's, thats why its at random and it only runs for 30 sec. |
Thanks for the info, I will check the write ups.
