What does a secondary air pump do?
Secondary air pumps are a crucial component of your car’s emission control system. Their primary function is to inject fresh air into the exhaust system during certain operating conditions, typically during cold starts or when the engine is under high load. This clean air helps facilitate the combustion of unburned hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide present in the exhaust gases, leading to a reduction in harmful emissions. Essentially, secondary air pumps contribute to cleaner exhaust emissions and are designed to help vehicles comply with environmental regulations.
