I went ahead and disconnected it and viola! She's running a lot smoother. Of course I have another code now but I can live with that. As far as what you said about poor mileage, mine has been horrible, somewhere around 10-11 MPG. We'll see how she does with it disconnected. I just filled up and I have a feeling I'll get a lot more than 220 miles out of this tank. I posted another thread about my exhaust smelling like fuel, like the engine was running really rich. I was going to replace the fuel pressure regulator, but I think I found my culprit! Two birds with one stone! thanks KILNA!
