Most, if not all 4AGE's have some form of electrically operated idleup
valve. Its purpose is to provide a small amount of extra air to help,
among other things, the engine to start. It usually allows filtered air
from the intake ducting into one of the small vacuum connectors on the
throttle body.

Some engines will also have a vacuum operated "throttle lifter" on the
side of the throttle body. This has a little spring-operated rod that pushes
the throttle slightly open when you turn the engine off. Once the engine
starts, engine vacuum acting on a diaphragm, retracts the rod so that it
does not interfere with normal idle.

Both of these devices are designed to save you having to crack the
throttle open when starting. But check you timing anyway Smile
