When

EC

The

exhaust

pressure
in

the
exhaust

tube

usually
pulsates
in

response
to

the

opening
and

closing
of

the
exhaust

valve
and

it
decreases

pressure
periodically

If
a

secondary
air
intake
is

opened

to
the

atmosphere
under

con

ditions

secondary
air

can
be

drawn

into

the
exhaust
