Default Air pump removal?

When i installed my headers i took off the air but the pump is still down there. The hose looks like **** just sittin there, is there anything I should know if im going to remove it. Should I even remove it at all and if so how?

There's an article on how to !AIR it at http://www.ls1camaro.net/sections.ph...ticle&artid=70 Pump has about 4 bolts holding it on if you want to remove a little weight, or just remove the hose. Since you already removed your air you shouldn't get any (new) codes.

You should see some AIR codes, find someone who will
kill them for cheap. The removal is simple although you
will probably want some 3/8" extensions and a u-joint,
and one open-end (all 10mm I think).
