So i'm removing my acoustic valve!

jumping on the band wagon of acoustic valve removal

The last bit i've got to remove is the small rubber tube that connects the valve to somewhere (lol)...can i just cut this and tape it up? :S

Wants plugging up iirc. Tape might do the job but a bung of some sort would be better. Wouldn't cut it incase you ever want to put the valve back in for some reason.

the pipe connects to the plenham slightly to the left of the TB (remove engine cover)

you MUST block this pipe off properly
