Idle Speed Control (Linkage): Description and Operation

Fig. 48 - Throttle Return Control (TRC) System Schematic

PURPOSE

Reduces hydrocarbon emissions during coasting--Fig 48. 

OPERATION

During coasting the control valve allows vacuum to act on the throttle lever actuator holding the throttle valve slightly open to admit more air to
the combustion chambers--leaning out the overrich mixture caused by the sudden closure of the throttle plates. 

When manifold vacuum drops below a predetermined value the control valve closes allowing the throttle actuator to return the throttle valve to
normal idle.
