Default Air delete and tune out

First off thanks for all the help guys!

I tuned out my air system a while back but as I was tearing it apart I started the car to make sure my plugs sealed well and they did, but I noticed my air pump was pumping air still?

I tuned out with tuner cats using the constants table was that right? How come its still running lol

I'm not sure what values you put in the tables so can't help you there. But why haven't you just removed the AIR pump?

I am removing the air pump and hoses/ hard lines I'm actually in the process of doing that right now. I tore the fittings out and plugged the holes before I put the car on wheel stands to get under it and remove the pump. When I started it I noticed the pump was still running.

I dident change any of the values I thought just turning it off in the constant table would have it off. Should I zero the values I just don't want the CEL to come on.

Sorry, I misunderstood what you posted. I usually take it out there and set the parameters that activate whatever system I am deleting to values that the car will never experience. Be it MPH, or Coolant Temp or something else. Just to be sure.
