Default 92 AIR pump???

Today, I started my Vette with the hood open and was checking out a few things and the AIR pump was running and it sounded terrible. Are these things expensive? I also need that foam sleeve that covers the intake for the pump. Is this a GM only part?

The foam filter comes on the AIR pump duct GM# 14104698 list 15.44$ our price was 9.89$. Call Chris at Superior 800-782-8267, when I bought mine they actualy had it in stock. I dont know about the pump.

Mine sounded terrible also, so I unplugged it
So far no troubles, but a new one is expensive, aroun $150 I think..

I went to Walmart and bought a flat fliter pad for a window air conditioner and cut it to size and cemented it into a "sock" shape -- looks and works like the original.....can't tell the difference.

They sound awful even when new - just not quite as bad. There is absolutely NO oil in the pump vanes, and that's what you're hearing. It sounds bad, but will last a lot longer than it sounds...

Do you also have the AIR pipe that runs on the pass side?

Yup sure do and the other side, and the 92 specific EGR pump solonoid and all the rest of it. I'd just have to account for all of it before I shipped it to you.

If I remember right that passenger side tube is a tough one to come by.

What I will do is make an inventory sheet of everything I can find when I get home. Oh and that $25 bucks is an everything price if you want it all.

Okie I got the air pump, the hose to the air pump, the brackets it is on, the air filter, the EGR Valve, EGR solonoid, the left and right AIR return from the manifolds and I think thats everything. Give me an email address to contact you with further.
