Task
Actuating variable intake manifold switchover valve in line with engine load and speed.

Function
The variable intake manifold switchover valve is actuated by the ME-SFI control unit in line with the engine load and speed:
- When starting and at low rotational speeds, the variable flaps are opened - variable intake manifold switchover valve de-energized.
- At a load exceeding 50% as of approx. 1750 rpm up to approx. 3900 rpm the variable flaps are closed. The variable intake manifold switchover valve is opened by means of a ground signal by the ME-SFI control unit for this purpose. The intake manifold switchover diaphragm unit is pressurized with vacuum and operates the flap shafts.
- As of, for example, 3900 rpm the variable intake manifold switchover valve is no longer actuated. The variable flaps open through spring force.
