If think it's gone bad, take belt off, and turn it, see if it's locked up, Also it effects idle, so there so be signs of that, and i always have moo sound, are you hearing the MOO

Well if you have a aftermarket intake, you would know what the moo sound is, Do a search about the moos ound it will explain that the airpump makes a moo sound with a aftermarket intake

When my air pump went bad, it made a sorta raspy sound. It was the magnetic clutch wheel rubbing the rest of the air pump pulley. It was annoyong. I just took it out.
