It shouldn't matter if you leave them off. They just go to eachother and nothing else.

It could but they don't go anywhere so nothing will happen. It's really just preference.

I've had my throttle start to freeze up at about -20ish several times. That's without this done. I want to do the mod with a valve to flip back for cold weather use.

Screw the valves. It takes 10 seconds to hook it back up with the factory hose clamps
