I just bought some very needed new vacuum hoses for my newly acquired 2.0 fuely.
Before I drive it at all I need to do quite a bit of work, but to get to the point, someone has removed the DECEL Valve. Do I need one for performance or is it an early attempt at emissions control. Should I just plug each one of the vacuum hose nipples leading to the decel valve. Thank you (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif) |

You car will drop rpms much faster without it. Same feeling you get from a lighter flywheel. If you are OK with that, run without it ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) Andy |
