AIR pump disable question...
AIR pump disable question... We came to the conclusion that this annoying *** humming noise from under the hood when i start up cold, is the AIR, so i was thinking of disabling it along w/ EGR when i bought my QTP LT's and Y-pipe...now here's the problem, i'm probably not going to be able to get the QTP's until next year. Can i still disable the AIR w/out getting and SES light? Also, does anyone know how this procedure is done or where i can find out how to do it? Thanks a lot!
Ok duhh...sorry about that, i found the removal procedures and it sounds mad easy...but i have another question for ya....can i remove JUST the AIR to get rid of that annoying noise and not worry about having to remove the EGR...also i will probably be due for emissions w/in a year or so. It says i will throw a code in a week or 2 of normal driving, now if i get called into emissions after this happens, can i re-instal the AIR system? Will it make the code shut off once re-installed or will the code stay on until i get it edited?? Thats all, thanks again for the help.

And as for it being something that i didnt tamper w/ emissions wise...i think you would most likely feel something different in the way your car is running...or not for that matter.LOL AIR comes off tomorrow!
Will the SES light for the air pump cause any performance loss? I really want to take my EGR and Air off but i havent because i wanted to get the codes deleted first. Hey 99camaross did you buy block off plates?
