  1. Remove air cleaner, plug air cleaner vacuum source and connect tachometer to engine. With engine running at idle, remove deceleration valve signal hose from intake manifold.

  3. If airflow lasts less than one second or engine speed does not drop, check for defective hoses or deceleration valve.
