Greetings from Northern Berks County here in PA. I have an 88 Dodge Ram50 (2.0L, 5-speed MT, 2WD) and here it is for your viewing pleasure...





And here is my question: My secondary air pipe is (as seen in the pic below) is not Grade A Prime. What symptoms could this cause?



It takes a year and a half to warm up and it's extremely under-powered, of course, but I know it could probably perform better with some TLC here and there. Is it worth replacing the secondary air pipe? Any info would make my day. Thanks!
