ACCEPTED Check Mark

Thanks for your question. This can mean alot of different things. The first thing I would check is to make sure all the vacuum lines are on where they are suppose to be. Thermactor air pump is hooked up yes?

The solenoids, make sure they are all hooked up electrically.

If you have a vacuum pump, you can hook it to the bypass valve. This valve is fairly close to the pump, just follow the hose from the pump.

Let me know what you find.

Thanks

Did you check under the hood. There usually is a colored one around the radiator shrowd area. If not, I'll see if I can track one down for you.

Thanks
