Secondary Air System Issue 850 1997

Thanks Bill, Yes, have seen a couple of posts about the 10mph issue. I have my doubts about that, but not certain. I'm going to check again this morning, as it's cold out and everything else has been verified, but I haven't heard the pump run under any circumstances at all in over a month, with or without the other repairs. Verified the relay's trigger wire is intact via continuity last night. Thanks for that link. I share your frustration about search engines bringing up "pay for" stuff much more readily than free--our economic system at its finest-LOL! I had found a couple of manuals on the web for sale, but the picture of the one in your link gave me the correct number, and I purchased one off of Ebay last night.

After checking the feeds last night, the only other curiosity I've noticed: My mileage seems to have dropped considerably. I've had the battery disconnected to get to the pump, and I'm only going by the dash display for now, haven't checked it via fill-up calculation. Also, I've only driven back and forth to work and around the neighborhood at low speed, which is poor mileage territory. Wonder if the ECT is bad, but the gauge is reading correctly. Sigh. Will have to check my maintenance log and see when it was last changed. For now, off for a cold-morning trip around the block, see if the pump comes on after.
