It has nothing to do with cold starts.

|The vacuum hose that runs from the bottom of the intake 
|manifold to the
|cold start valve, and then to the air box - what's it do? 
| At least as
|far as the cold start is concerned.  Can I remove it and 
|block the cold
|start opening? What are the ramifications?
|
|No, I haven't tried yet, it's raining out :(

|TIA
