An Air pump is a device that is used to force oxygen into the
exhaust system during cold starts, understanding that a lean
Air/Fuel mixture burns much hotter than a rich condition, the
air is "injected" to create a lean condition heating the
catalyst in less time. With the catalyst and O2 sensors up to
temperature, the powertrain module will now accept O2 data to
adjust the AFR to Stoichiometric which on a gasoline Engine, is
14.7:1.
