: Where is it at exactly and what is the dashpot sory for not knowing this type of stuff but I am just learning (im 17 give me a break)
Hey, it's cool. What I meant by that is the Air Control Valve which is hooked up to the air pump. Inside this Air Control Valve (acv), located above the exhaust manifold, is the anti-afterburn vavle which mixes air into the intake manifold to help with emissions and to make a smooth transition when decelerating. The dashpot is located right where your throttle cable hooks up in the back of your engine. It is distinguished by an oval disk with an extending rod that catches the throttle so it doesn't snap back real fast. It also has a 10mm nut holding it in place and this is the nut used to adjust it. I also recommend a Hanyes or any other manual as they can explain this stuff better than me (I'm trying too!). I have the Haynes and they have some good pictures to follow. BTW I'm only 21 and still learning myself :) This board and the www.rx7forum.com board both have a great collection of knowledge on these cars.
