Floor covering

[Ernie Ekberg]

If they are located under the valve covers then my Jake will continue to work like it does--does not do anything. I have driven to and from Montana for 5 years without one and with all those grades have done pretty good. It is always a heads up to watch my speed, rpms, oil and water going down and to not burn up my brakes.

They deactivate six (exhaust or intake?) valves which adds drag within the engine providing extra braking. The external part of the system is the switches and wiring that deliver 12 volt power to the solenoids. Apparently the shop considered failure and repair of the solenoids to be pretty routine for a DD with Jake. At least that is how I understand it.
