Effect of bad IRIS checkvalve
Hi all,
I found the IRIS check valve on our 92 Ebony broken, wondering what effect this would have. Car is running well, except for slight hesitation right off of idle on very light throttle. Taped it back together, but no change...

Re: Effect of bad IRIS checkvalve
You should be able to get another check valve at any auto parts store. Not having one is a vacuum leak whenever the IRIS solenoid is open. Plus, the vacuum tank not having vacuum due to no/bad check valve means that the IRIS butterfly won't be able to close, and the car will be lacking in low-end torque.
