7. Remove the A.I.R. pump assembly.
8. Remove the inlet hose (3) and the clamp from the A.I.R. pump (2). Discard the old A.I.R. pump, the outlet hose, the clamp and the vacuum harness assembly.
9. Disconnect the electrical wire harness (2) from the bleed valve (1) (1996-1997 vehicles only).
10. Remove and discard the bleed valve (1).
11. Insert the connector plug, GM P/N 12064959, to the bleed valve wire harness (2). Secure the bleed valve wire harness to the A.I.R. pump wire harness using tape or nylon ties.
12. Install the inlet hose (3) and the clamp to the new A.I.R. pump.
13. Install the new A.I.R. pump assembly (2) and the nuts (1).
Tighten
Tighten the nuts to 8-12 N.m (72-106 lb in).
14. Connect the A.I.R. pump wire harness to the A.I.R. pump.
15. Lower the vehicle.
16. Install the A.I.R. pump outlet hose (1) and the clamp to the A.I.R. crossunder pipe.
17. Install the solenoid and the vacuum harness assembly (2) and the nut (4), GM P/N 10242827, to the ignition coil bolt/stud.
Tighten
Tighten the nut to 21-29 N.m (15-21 lb ft).
18. Connect the vacuum hose (3) to the shutoff valve.
19. Connect the A.I.R. pump jumper harness (1) to the solenoid assembly (2). The wire harness should be routed behind the A.I.R. pump outlet hose.
20. Disconnect the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve vacuum hose (2) from the intake manifold.
21. Route the vacuum hose (1) from the new solenoid assembly to the EGR hose fitting (along the left side of the intake manifold).
22. Connect the new vacuum hose and the tee/fitting (1) to the manifold.
23. Connect the EGR valve vacuum hose (2) to the tee/fitting (1).
24. Connect the A.I.R. pump hose and the clamp to the underside of the air cleaner/duct assembly (3).
25. Install the air cleaner/duct assembly (3).
26. Install the retainer (2) to the air cleaner/duct assembly and upper radiator support.
27. Tighten the clamp (1) at the inlet of the MAF sensor. Continue to Step 2 of F Car A.I.R. Pump Campaign Kit (Pontiac Firebird w/WS6 Ram Air) Service Procedure/Installation/Replace F Car A.I.R. Pump Campaign Service Procedure Steps 29-32).
F Car A.I.R. Pump Campaign Kit (Chevrolet Camaro w/SS Ram Air) Service Procedure/Installation/Replaces F Car A.I.R. Pump Campaign Service Procedure Steps 29-32)
1. Install the air cleaner/duct assembly (4) (with MAF sensor) then install the A.I.R. pump inlet hose and the clamp to the underside of the air cleaner/duct assembly
2. Connect the electrical connector to the MAF sensor.
3. Tighten the hose clamp (5) at the outlet side of the MAF sensor.
4. Install the bolts (3) to the air cleaner box then install the air cleaner element (2) and the cover (1). Continue with Step 2 of the next procedure.
Tighten

F Car A.I.R. Pump Campaign Kit (Pontiac Firebird w/WS6 Ram Air) Service Procedure/Installation/(Replaces F Car A.I.R. Pump Campaign Service Procedure Steps 29-32)
1. Install the A.I.R. pump inlet hose and the clamp to the underside of the Ram Air-air cleaner/duct assembly. Continue to Step 2.
2. Start the vehicle and allow the engine to go into closed loop. Using the Tech 2 scan tool, energize the A.I.R. pump. Monitor the oxygen sensor voltages at Bank 1, Sensor 1 and Bank2, Sensor 1. With the A.I.R. pump energized, the oxygen sensor will count down to below 50 mv, indicating air delivery to both exhaust banks.
3. If the oxygen sensor voltage remains above 50 mv, check for proper installation of the components, battery voltage to the new solenoid, and/or engine vacuum to the A.I.R. shutoff valve. Repair as required.
4. Clear all A.I.R. diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs).
5. Install the emissions label, GM P/N 12568750, onto the radiator support.
6. Install the GM Campaign Identification Label.
