Of those who own an '81, is your CCC in or out?

Mine is still in and have it all working. The PO removed the air pump, but gave it to me when I bought the car and have it stored. Went thru a lot of fine tuning of the carb after rebuild, but have a scan tool, Monitor 85 to help read codes and keep everything in the CCC running correctly.
