Some A.I.R. pipes from the check valve to the intake manifold may rust through from the inside out. This condition can be caused by corrosive exhaust
gases.
To reduce this condition, a stainless steel pipe will be used for service parts and for 1984 vehicles.
The A.I.R. pipe is a part of the five year/50,000 mile Emission Warranty.
