Subject:Power steering boost valve?
From:Mark Ingalls
Date:Wed, 27 Sep 2000 07:52:38 CDT

Hi,

I have a 85 1.9.

There is a small solenoid valve in the upper right corner of my engine bay.
It has a brown and a black wire going to it.

It takes filtered air and puts it into the intake manifold.

From the Bentley it appears it is the power steering boost valve. I have
dealer AC also, Bentley says it should have a valve also but I just have the
one.

Am I correct that this is the PS boost valve?  If it is mine is stuck open
because I can pinch the hose with pliers and the RPM's drop a couple
hundred.

Thanks,

Mark Ingalls
