how to remove smog pump
« on: August 24, 2008, 06:23:41 pm »
What would be involved with removing the smog pump in my 73'? I know that I'll have to get a new belt but what else? Are there hoses or vacuum lines that I need to deal with? Thanks for the help.

You'll have to plug a hole in each manifold.  Or pick up a pair of non-smog headers ;D.  As far as belts go, my '85 didn't require anything other than the removal of the belt that goes from smog pump to water pump.
