i read the tech articles about removing the smog pump and all it says is about the belt routing. im not worried about that, thats no problem. the problem i am worried about is if removing the smog pump is it gonna affect any of my sensors or any eletrical components in my car. the smog pump has 2 eletrical plugs on it under the cover plate. what happens when i remove the wiring to the pump is my conscern.

What will happen when you remove those wires is the AIR injection system (thats the smog pump system) wont function anymore. The computer wont care one way or the other.

I have had the belt off of my '87 for months will no ill effects, it even passed inspection. The bect way to get rid of it all is to get headers w/o AIR fittings. I have a brand new set of SLP 1.75" headers w/o AIR fittings and with the install kit that I am selling for $425 + shipping. chuck@dumark.com
