What to do with red vaccum hose that usually plugs into intake,

If you still have your EGR valve or smog pump on your car, you are going to have to find some way to hook it up so thoes parts can get vaccume to work. Do you have an extra place on your intake to place another fitting for it? If not just T into another vaccume line and hook it there.
 
You'll only get a CE light if you take the whole valve off and leave it unplugged. What you can do, which is simple, is seperate the two pieces of the EGR (few screws) then find a way to hold the plunger down 1/2 way and block off the hole on the intake. 30min at the most to do all of that including making a plate out of metal to block off the intake... Joe, we should have instructions in the sticky about removing the EGR
