Does anyone know how important the air pump is on a 1990 RX7? I would like to take it off but it looks like air is used to open the 6 port feature and the induction oil injection. Thanks

It is not that important they put it on there so they could be imported in the U.S. Im rebuilding my right now motor and im not puting them back on my car when i finish. Remove the air pump and the 6 port selves they should just slide out if not use some wd40 and let them sit, try later. P.S. you can us freeze plugs to block up the extra holes on the manifold after u pull the extra parts

You can disable the 6th port some how, I'm not a NA person so I'm not sure how. Oil injectors use the vac hoses to open I believe though.
BTW The NA engines in any rx7's in japan. All rx7's were turbo over there. The NA engines were made for the US, and possibly a couple other countries. The air pump is mainly used for emmisions, and was used to open the ports.

You can use the airpump to open the ports, but thats not way it works from the factory. You don't need it, unless you plan to keep your CAT.
