OP,

You can delete the AST; however, it needs to be done properly.

Lots of good info can be found in the Frequently Asked Questions "sticky" in the 3rd gen forum

Air Separation Tank / AST / Coolant Expansion Tank:
Often fails due to heat and pressure. Many people replace them or remove them from the system.
