yellow zee Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 So my air regualtor (AAR) stopped working and after a failed attempt at trying to repair it I decided to think outside the box for a replacement. I needed something I could adjust idle with so I went to the local Home Depot and bought a ball valve from the plumbing department and put it where the old air regulator once was. My broken AAR was giving me a fluctuating idle and this replacement fixed that issue in a snap. I can set the idle to whatever I desire by turning the valve. I know its not OEM and looks outta place but it works and thats whats important to me. I may paint it in the future to blend in more but for now its staying as is. Whats important is that it works like a charm! Quote Link to comment
