!air

I have my motour our right now and I do not feel like re-routing all of that piping so im just gonna get rid of it. as far as the pump and belt routing what did you guys do about that?

And another thing, I got an EGR blockoff plate where the EGR valve used to be, but what is the point in leaving The Egr tube ging up there just to heat up the manifold?
Is there a blockoff plate for this as well?

I think its some 10mm and just unplug it. The computer doesnt have to have it if its prgrammed out. or if you want just find the resistance of the stock pump and get some resistors to match and the computer will probably never know

There will be no change in the belt.

The AIR pump is electric.

Block off plates are made for the EGR pipe as well.

What year car is it

If it's OBD1 all you need to do is leave the fuse in place and remove everything else. The PCM will never know the AIR system is missing.

It may figure out that the EGR system isn't functioning. My car was able to tell the EGR wasn't working right (when I used to have it plugged) but a lot of other people seem to get away with it.

the egr checks itself and looks for air flow, thats why itll throw a code. I think the air pump just pumps

ya, I was told the EGR watches the map when it gives the gommand to open to monitor EGR.
Thanks for the info about the AIR.
