    Nothing critical performance wise and OK to drive, but need the actual code to tell what's going on. Could be the air pump, fuse, clogged air check valve, etc. Got the code?

    if it's p1415 or p1416 it's probably a check valve. Number 30 on the diagram and ~$20 at napa. You could also check the air hoses for leaks.

    I had the same problem, I ended up replacing the smog pump, I was also blowing fuses left and right.

    The code is a P0140 and a second one is P0140 but then at the end of the screen it has PD. It says the same thing though.

    I'm not blowing fuses right now.

    P0140 isn't secondary air - bank 1 sensor 2 insufficient activity. Sure the code wasn't P0410? Or maybe both?
