secondary air pump is what that is ,just take the useless thing off and lob it in the bin if it actually did what it was designed to do it would be a brilliant idea but they dont and as such the best place for it is the nearest dustbin your car wont miss it believe me mine doesnt

no as all its supposed to do is channel forced warm air back to the inlet from cold start up to make the engine warm up quicker its not connected to the ecu side in any way so you will be ok
