Resurrecting this thread.

I have a 93' no one has a replacement electric air pump in stock. But mine is making a terrible squeal noise at startup. Need to do something...

SO can I just unplug it? Or should I gut it and keep it plugged in? Or should I... Other options?

Ok so I tried unplugging the connected in the photo and sounds goes away of course but the SEL comes on within minutes.
So any suggestions would be appreciated.

Default Why remove it?

WHY WOULD YO REMOVE IT??? I JUST FIXED MY SYSTEM. MY TWO CHECK VALVES WERE BAD. I WAS BLOWING SOME SMOKE OUT OF THE EXHAUST. I REPLACED THE OLD ONES AND
THE SMOKE WENT AWAY. I PURCHASED THE VALVES ON ROCK AUTO FOR $16.00 EACH. i WOULD START THERE.
