Yes its easy to do

With the Valves in your hands before the electronic test
With DISA in your hand gently try to wiggle the Flap- it should be tight and require good finger pressure to even move it slightly

Inspect the base of the flap for any damage, failure via age, movement



With your car, still with OLD Manifold installed:
1) get a friend/relative
2) Connect disa to any disa cable - hold Valve in hand by the motor side
3) Neutral/ car off position is OPEN
4) once the car is started into idle the valve will Close
5) Turn off car, disconnect Valve
