Well, of course all of this is being filtered through Mom and me. Her exacts words were "it is the secondary air pump motor (it is losing its vacuum hence the whistle until it runs out of air)". I translated that vacuum pump (since I knew my friend's old Rabbit had one of those) and confusion ensued. Sorry. I doubt that it has an air injection pump for emissions, but who knows, since it was originally a CA car, it might have. In the late 1960's thru early to mid 1970's, many cars came equipped with air pumps that fed into the exhaust for "after-burning"... They made some interesting sounds on decelleration. My MG sounded wonderful with that thing. **************Get fantasy football with free live scoring. Sign up for FanHouse Fantasy Football today.
