Hmm, I wonder if that's why mine doesn't work, I used the JDM suspenders upgrade...

JDM pumps are an upgrade, they're half the size of USDM smog pumps.

depends, i've seen plenty of people just remove the pump too. without much info it's not worth guessing and writing down all the possibilities.

in all honesty, it's all basic stuff anyways.
