Air Pump

Hi all. I just bought a 84 GMC lb with a 305. Someone has taken the air pump off and plugged the lines from it. I want to remove it completely but not sure if it will cause any problems. So if i continue on removing all of the related parts, will i have any trouble with anything else? Since i live in Arkansas i don't have to worry about inspections or anything.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Air Pump

Rip it off.

Just get the correct belts and make sure you hook your vacuum lines up to the right places incase you've messed with any of them.

Re: Air Pump

I was out in the middle of nowhere (and I do mean NOWHERE) when my air pump took a dump. I took it off and was able to use a smaller spare belt to get going again. I left it that way for nearly a year before I had to get my truck smogged. Ran great without one.
