it wont affect anything, but if you do remove the pump make sure the rack & pinion are properly plugged up.
So the power steering pump is bad and I kinda like manual steering. So my question is should me removing the power steering belt affect anything...? I was thinking it be like a lightens Lilly set cuz that weight is gone.

I was thinking of just cutting the belt for it. It's on it's on belt...
So would t hurt anything if I just cut the belt for now?
just your arms! it will suck to parallel park but as long as the car is moving its fairly easy to turn.
It's already like that and I love it. I just want to make sure that that belt not being present won't mess up timing or anything like that. Jus lighten the rotational weight for the engine. Like lighter pulleys.
Lol ignor my ignorance. Painting my inetirior pieces paint got to ke lol thanx w/oartic7g.
So I cut the belt. as crazy as it sounds the throttle response is a noticeable change. You can feel it and the engine seems to run better... I'm not sure if the pump had bad bearings or what ever it has but I'm sure my car thanx me lol
now go one step more and simply remove the pump from the engine and hook the supply and returns together. It is very easy to do right behind headlight area.
Honestly, its not going to be much of a power difference like crazy unless the actual pump was seized, I suggest putting the 2 lines together on the rack before its too late. If you dont do this with time, you rack will fail on you due to lack of lubrication, and eventually hear wierd noises when your driving, take it as a tip because its happened to me in my honda lol. If your gonna do it, make sure you do it right the first time.
