just gut the airpump and leave it on.....or if you want a bad air pump I have a couple of bad ones laying around.

Has anyone ever removed the air pump from a US 1200 and been able to keep the A/C functioning ?

The pulley on the air pump is used to keep the A/C running. There is too much of an offset to just use a shorter belt.... it won't line up.

What is the easiest way to do this ???

I need to get rid of this emissions crap, so the car will start running like a 1200 should !!!

thanks
