Lost of power?

[BoxSinit]

Hello all. I have the dreaded codes P0410 and P1411. I plan to track down the problem in the secondary air system. My question to those in the know..Can a problem in the secondary air system result in a lost of power? Thanks!

Side note: I do hear the the secondary pump come on when the car runs great. When check engine light comes on (as it has done several times in the past when I cleared the codes) shortly after start up, I don't hear the secondary air pump come on. The car idles rough with higher rpms as well. Can the fuse for the secondary air pump go bad gradually?

You may want to start with a search here first. You're not the first one having to diagnose this..

I've done a pretty extensive search. I plan to tackle the job this weekend but I didn't see any comments on loss of power with codes to the secondary air system.

What are you using to read the codes? I am not sure you are seeing all of them...

 

A good idle and poor high RPM (above 4000 RPM) usually indicates a dirty or bad MAF. But there should be a code for that too...

Your SAI problem should not in itself cause a lack of power. However, the underlying cause of this situation (air leak or something) may also be at the root of your engine not performing as it should.
