Secondary air pump issue and engine smell in cabin
I keep getting a CEL and it shows insufficient SAP flow on banks 1 and 2. I've replaced all the vacuum hoses and this helped a bit but the CEL light will come back on after a few hundred miles after I reset the light with the same code.
When start first starting the car when its cold, the engine sounds like a jet engine (loud roaring) running for about 30 seconds before the noise dies down. I also get a strong engine smell coming into the interior of the car when sitting at idle at a stop light all the time. I found the source of the smell is is coming from the vacuum regulator/pump area near the where it attaches to the front part of the intake manifold.
Can anyone give me some help here? Thanks in advance
