Which bit is the ACV at the moment ive just taken off the airpump

[allstaruk]

Its next to the rats nest under the pleum (uim) you can\'t see it without taking things off.
 
If you need pictures I gonna be taking the plenum off pretty soon so let me know, you need blanking plates to remove the acv.

You don\'t have to remove, do you have a power fc, if not i\'d leave it in place.

The ACV has 2 uses it is used as part of the air pump to pump clean air into the cat under 2500 rpm in order to preserve the cat and dilute the emmisions as such, it also allows a little bit more air into the exhaust on overrun to aid the burning of un burnt fuel.

Do you have a decat mate?
