Default A.I.R. stuff

Has anyone removed their AIR injection parts? I thought I read that somewhere, but can't find anything using the search tool.

If you have done it, what did you do? Plug the lines or run them all together? According to the manual, the valves are one-way valves on the exhaust manifolds. So I should be able to takeall that crap out and plug them, right?

If your 90 has the L98 and not the LT1, ask CentralCoaster. He's done it. From what I have read here in the forum, you can disconnect and remove everything associated with the AIR system, leave the electrical connectors unplugged, and not throw any codes. I have not done it, it's just what I read from previous threads a while back.

Let's see if CentralCoaster can chime in. :auto:

Pulled it all out. In the process of getting a custom chip burned to take the codes out. :cheers:

Mine was taken out before I bought the car but I believe you can just strip everything out. I don't believe it will set codes but I could be wrong.

I think the only downside is your cat' won't last as long.
