If you 're still interested in the cars on that lot, I highly doubt that anything was screwed up by running without the SC. The salesman didn't know what he was talking about, but if you can get an L67 car cheap because he'll cut you a deal, you might just want to jump on it.

Just a thought

haha, that makes no sense....the car is acutally getting 'abused' more with the SC off because of the restriction the SC is causing

I'd be willing to venture he'* between 10-15 MPG at best.

Guys.. the O2 sensor is going to keep it from running rich or lean for any period of time.
That'* why it'* there.
With the belt..the car will function fine..as designed. Without the belt..the car will function close to fine due to programming and fail safes.
