So I plugged it back in. The engine ran beautifully before I plugged it back in but it seems to run even better with it plugged in. I noticed on a 65 mile trip I am now getting 16.5 MPG that's up from 14.5 MPG. Thanks for all the feed back......

I would re-connect it. I have been told a rich mixture tends to wash the
lubricant off the cylinder walls increasing ring wear. At least do some
Google research. Let us know what you find.
