What is the function of a motorcycle secondary air injection valve?
1 Answers
The function of a motorcycle secondary air injection valve is to introduce fresh air into the exhaust gases emitted by the engine, thereby increasing the oxygen content in the exhaust. This allows unburned HC (hydrocarbons) and CO (carbon monoxide) in the high-temperature exhaust to undergo secondary combustion and oxidation, ultimately reducing exhaust pollutants. It is a type of engine post-treatment technology. Working principle of the air injection valve: To ensure an appropriate amount of air injection under different operating conditions, a "control valve" is installed on the secondary air valve. Function of the motorcycle choke: The purpose of closing the choke is to increase the concentration of the air-fuel mixture, which facilitates engine starting.
