looking for air bypass solenoid

[steve ravet]

Most cars have some kind of A.I.R. pump, along with a diverter valve
that is used for pumping air into the exhaust manifolds or cat
converter.  I know the motor in my S-10 Blazer, a 5.7TBI from a '91
Caprice, has one that is electrically controlled by the ECM.  Don't know
if it's on/off or variable flow but it may work.  You can recognize it
by starting and the AIR fittings on the exhaust manifold (if any) and
working back to the valve.  I have no idea if this will work for you,
though.
