Currently my D-jet 2.0 only has two of the three hoses hooked up on the Decel valve (two larger diameter that go to the plenum)...where does the third line go?

What are the ill effects of removing this all together to rule out vacuum leak sources while I fine tune the motor
(don't worry Mike, I'll put it back (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) )

Hey Mike, when I did my PEFI conversion I did away with the decel valve.
Effect has been possititve. The engine spools down much quicker when
the throttle is closed. Shifting is much quicker now. Some might say that
you could have stalling because the rpms will drop too fast. I haven't had
that problem, but I'm also running more advance at idle than stock in
combination with a restricted air-bleed port to pull idle down to 900.
I still get stock idle speed but with much higher manifold vacuum, so
it never stalls and pulls better off idle. I don't see any reason to keep
the decel valve.
