Jim,
My 75 TR6 is running just fine without the Air Pump (it died 3 years ago),
the EGR valve and the Anti-run on valve. Now, I don't have to take my car
through emissions anymore though it did pass the one time I had to bring it
in about 10 years ago.

Subject: [TR] 1974 TR6 running on
Hi, this is my first time on this board. I just picked up a '74 TR6. I am
quickly learning things about it but I have a running on problem that I
would appreciate some feedback on. I'm in California but '74s don't need to
be smoged even here. I am also wondering if any of the smog items are best
removed only because they can sometimes cause more than their share of
problems. I am also aware that some systems are made to run as they are and
should not be altered. My '74 has 84,000 on it and was neglected
mechanically by the owner for the last several years. I am cleaning up
everything, one piece at a time, but would appreciate any help on the
running on problem. It was being run for some time without a thermostat so
the first thing I suspected was carbon causing the running on. Reading on I
see the evaporation system has a no run on devise so now I am looking hard
at the smog items on the car. Thanks, Jim
