Airflow Sensor & Mixture Control Unit

  1. Check sensor plate lever for freedom of movement. Remove safety plug and turn ignition on to build up fuel control pressure. Turn ignition OFF and push sensor plate down by hand.
  2. Even resistance should be felt over entire range of travel. Release sensor plate suddenly. No binding should be evident. Sensor plate should quickly return and lever should follow more slowly. See Fig 1.
