Here is a pic of a stock 1990 Engine.



You can see the black looking box above the frisbee. Your air pump vallve doesn't have the cover but on the engine you can see the 2 end circle doobies.

I think it will clean up the engine bay nicely but I have read that the power it takes is fairly minimal.
