I need one of the GM electric air pumps to pass emissions, and I don't know if i'm retarded or what, but I can't find a single one for sale anywhere on ebay or online.

normaly only used for passing emisions. just remove your stock air pump, cap the line that goes to the acv if you still have it. find a place to put the new electric air pump, wire into the ignition, and i found it easiest to get some 5/8" rubber hose and run that to the cat instead of a split air pipe.

do you know of any links to a thread that did a write up? also why should it be only used when passing emissions couldn't it be used for daily driving?
