you're kidding me right? Here are a few tips:

1. turn off the caps.2. remember to use periods.3. you've got 2 vacuum lines that are open, your car's now got a vacuum leak and will idle high, then have trouble maintaining idle because of it. Cap those vac lines, pull the fmic, and although you can leave the egr off, remember to cap off where it was once connected and the associated equipment.
