What kind of problems will be experienced by removing the air pump? And second, my car doesnt warm up, ever... I am using a 50/50 mix of antifreeze. I am in jacksonville right now and it isnt even cold here.(like 40 in the morning and 60-70 in the afternoon.) The car stays right above the C mark even if I let it warm up for 15 minutes and drive it for 3 hours... is this a problem??

removing your airpump will not give you any problems, just make sure you block off the ACV.
you just need a new thermostat

the gauge for engine temp should be no more then 1/4 the way up from c anyways, mine dont move at all, dont be alarmed

But it should.

Correct it should. The t-stat is probably stuck in open position or wrong temp.
put a 180deg stock t-stat back in it. Running too cold all the time will chew up your gas. rx7doctor

Touch your radiator, is it freezing or is it really hot? if its hot, your temp sensor is messed up.

My radiator is warm... can keep my finger on it w/ no prob... and the reason I asked about the air pump is because my suffered from a pd fire not too long ago and while fixing it I encountered some starting problem and while messing around with the pulleys I discovered that my air pump was like frozen or something, so I took it off--but didnt block off. well, now I have the car running, but it idles around 1500rpm and I cant seem to bring it down. I was wondering if not blocking off the air pump was the source of the problem? I dont know anything about the vacuum system... only how the hose setup looks so I can hook it up and unhook it etc...
