Vacuum Control Temperature Sensor

The vacuum control temperature sensor controls the operation of the air control door. During initial start-up situations, this valve directs engine vacuum to the air control vacuum motor. The motor closes the air intake door, allowing the intake of heated manifold air. When the intake air temperature reaches a precalibrated value, this valve opens, allowing the intake of cooler outside air.
