Now there\\\\\\'s no where for the smog pump air to go. Should I just remove the smog pump or somehow re-route the pipes that previously went to the cats? mike

If you don't have AC then just take the belt off and remove the pump. It makes an annoying noise when it's pumping to nowhere.

hondaclf • Baldwin, NY, USA • Registered on 2/25/2009 • 244 posts • 4 Vehicles	Posted:6/20/2014 15:21 Basically you have to plug the pipes going into the exhaust in font of the cats and plug the openings in the rear of the heads. Just take out the vacuum lines and remove the pump if you have functioning AC then you'll need a shorter belt() http://www.grandmarq.net/vb/showthread.php?46952-1988-Mercury-Grand-Marquis-Smog-Pump-Delete&highlight=smog+pump+removal http://www.grandmarq.net/vb/showthread.php?47563-Belt-Sizes-for-3G-alternator-swap-and-Smog-Delete From that thread Quote: Second, for all you A/C lovers is 560k6. This can be found if you ask the parts person look up a 1997 Dodge Caravan with a 2.4 engine with air conditioning. Roughly about 19 bucks, more or less depending on where you normally shop...
