Air Pump in the front of my car runs exsessivly, and I have a code 410
are these connected? What excactly does the pump do? I also have code
442 regularly.

The PO410 code is a failure in the secondary air system. Read this thread; it will answer a lot of your question.

OK, I have gone through the Air Pump Threads, and I am bidding on a VW air pump on ebay, will the car run while the air pump is out?

Should I do the Check valve, then the SAS Valve first or do all of them at the same time?

Has anyone had to do this yet?

My pump is really driving me crazy, people think my car is going to blow up, it runs almost anytime I stop at a red light or at a drive through.....

You can run without it...it's just an emissions control device. Change the SAS valve and hose with it.

Can I run without it forever, Since Alabama doesn't require emissions testing!!!!!

I suppose you can but at some point you will have to fix it to sell it

Sell it, Never! Volvos are Like Luggage, I just keep them until they die

The trouble with never fixing it is that your dash will constantly have a check engine light on. This is not so bad except that something major could be wrong with your car but you'll never know it. For this reason alone, to me, it's worth getting it fixed.
