Pulse Air Injection Reactor (PAIR)
This system, used on 250" 6-cylinder models, allows additional fresh air into exhaust system without using an air pump. A special set of check valves is used to respond to exhaust system pulses and draw in fresh air. As with the A.I.R. system, HC and CO emissions are reduced. For additional information, see " Air Injection Systems - Pulse Air Type " in this section .
