If you're going by the book - yes. You need to eliminate all sources of vacuum leaks. Did I miss this - is it carbed or fuel injected? Edit: Sorry, I saw that it's FI. Plug the hose coming from the plenum.

Plug the hose wherever the source of vacuum is coming from (i.e. don't plug the distributor).
