Wow.I have this set up on my L89 chevelle but the solenoid does not seem to work.freemont built car.does this solenoid help with idle emissions?

I don't believe it was a smog component...rather an idle speed "reducer" that compensated for the higher idle of the hi-perf automatic cars. I think Chevy used a similar unit on many 70's engines with smog and a/c..
