They added this in 1988, so if you have an 86 or 87, you won't have this.

Thanks. I'm working on an '89 that's driving me crazy. The engine
always starts, but it sounds just like a weak battery or worn starter.
I've replaced the starter, distributor and ECU. Car cranks normally if
the coil is disconnected or if the fuse for the injectors is removed.
I've checked all the coils and wiring and grounds. I hope the air valve
will make it all better.
I'm willing to try anything!. bob
