Whats up with that?

whats up wit dat?

What up wit this shiz yo?

easy, its the BAC valve. Take it off and clean it like I did, it helps with throttle control. The engine works harder to power something like that, so the BAC valve pushes more air into the TB to give you a higher RPM to compensate. Im pretty sure thats how it works.

Uh, guys... The air byapss solenoid valve is supposed to open up via the air bypass relay when the A/C is switched on...The BAC may help some, but it's much too small to take on the A/C load all by itself....So check that also...

If your compressor is on it's way out, no amount of bypass air is gonna keep you alive...
