The EGR valve is ecu activated by using a vacuum solenoid.

The ecu is not going to command any EGR movement without a load on the engine.

How I would delete it is fab a block-off plate to put in between the IM and EGR valve.

This way the ECU will see the EGR moving and think it is OK. However the egr is not flowing any exhaust into the IM.
