The

early

with
a

above
a

stove
mounted
between

During

operation

OPERATION

The

counterweight
rotates
counter

clockwise
and

stops
at

the

stopper
pin

mounted
on

the
exhaust
manifold

while
the

engine

temperature
is
low

With
this
condition

the
heat
control

valve
is
in

the

fully
closed

position

obstructing
the
flow

of
exhaust

gas
As

engine

temperature
goes

up
and
the

ambient

temperature
becomes

high

enough
to

DESCRIPTION

The
Air

Injection
System
A
I
S

is

adopted
on
U
S
A

models

except
FU

models

and

injects
compressed
air

secondary
air

coming
from
the
air

pump
into

the
exhaust

port
of
the

cylinder
head
to
reduce

hydrocarbons

He
and

carbon

monoxide
CO
in

exhaust

gas
through
recombustion

There

are
two

types
of
Air

Injection

System

Fresh
outside
air
is
drawn

by
the
air

pump
through
the

air

pump
air

cleaner

Compressed
air
is

injected
into

the

exhaust

manifold

through
the

check
valve

The
A
B

valve

supplies
air
from
the

carburetor
air
cleaner
to
the

intake

manifold

so
as

to

prevent
after

fire

during

The
amount

of

trolled

by
