I don't agree... the air pump is driven by the belt. that takes energy. air pump is removed, loss is gone. If emissions truly mean nothing, as they do in OH, then the emission control system is nothing but a waste of fuel and/or power

What engine is in your truck? what is your gearing? auto trans I assume? 4wd? are our trucks identical?
