Question about deleting EBPV

Hey guys quick question. If I delete the EBPV rod in the pedestal will it cause a check engine light?
Thanks

No. Soft code only.

You can use a 470 ohm 1 watt resistor across the solenoid plug to get rid of the code. You can also get a code eliminator plug that does the same as the resistor. Not sure if you have to do the smog stuff you might need to do this.

when we did chris brownie's we deleted it out of the housing
you can just pop off the rivets and remove the flapper from the rod

Can someone show a pic of exactly where the resistor goes? I'm deleting mine since I'm putting the van turbo on but want to put the resistor in there. Also, is that the same size resistor to use for the AIH delete?

When you unplug the solenoid, it goes in the plug attached to the wiring. And yes, it's the same resistor (470 ohm, 1W).

Do I just wire one wire to the other or put the resistor in line on one of the wires. Sorry for the stupid questions.

Bend the resistor into a "U" and stick the wires into the plug. Double over the ends of the wires of the resistor and it will fit snug on the sockets of the terminals.

Where does the resistor go for the IAH.
I haven't had an iah for a year now and never had a light come on. Granted only a few night was cold enough to need it. I'd like to know so I can do it and not be bothered by a code later on.

I used ITP's big bore outlet to eliminate the butterfly in the exhaust and when I replaced my turbo pedestal with the EBPV delete version, I removed the sensor and plugged it in and leave it in the valley, eventually will probably get the resistor.

What's the sensor that plugs into the bottom of the spider right between the map line outlet and where the red line normally plugs into?
