Hello
Does anyone know what the air cut off valves do ? What circuit are they on?
Cheers

I shall answer my own question in case any one else wants to Know .When you shut the throttle a high vacuum is created in the inlet.This is used to operate a valve that shuts off the air to the pilot jet circuit causing a richer mixture to prevent banging and popping on the over run.

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

It doesn't just stop noise it also stops the exhaust valves from burning.
