Any Advantage To Removing...

the Carter yfa's metal EGR pipe that connects the carb to the exhaust manifold?

I have the smog system totally removed except for this pipe.

I would remove it but the fitting is kind of rusty at the exhaust manifold and I do not want to "break" something I would'nt be able to replace easily.

If there is no harm in leaving it in place then "all is well". Does the carb pull exhaust gas in through there all the time?

Thanks,

Ken

Won't hurt to leave it, if you remove you will have to put a plug in because you will then have an exhaust leek.
