I have have a 2.5 TD Auto Bongo that was fitted with the "Winter Pack" subsequently removed. I am also about to blank off the EGR valve.
My query is this: Do I still need any of the electrical units that sit above the glow plugs an associated vacuum pipes?
It would be useful to dump them if no longer required as they rather get in the way.

These?
Yes you do..! They control/keep up the idle on cold start & when the AC is on..

Yep, they control this...
Acts like a "choke" so the van don't start/run lumpy on those cold mornings that will be coming up..!

you can do away with the rearmost 2, and repositon the front 2? just means extending the vacuum pipe
