If you do, it won't run at all if you take the intake hose off. If you don't, it'll sound like a Hoover vacuum cleaner when you hit the gas and it'll suck in all the dirt you don't really want into your engine. Everett#2390 Dec 22nd, 06, 04:23 AM It doesn't help the Mass Air Flow sensor nor the engine. You would be doing it more harm than good. Mat Klemp Dec 22nd, 06, 04:50 AM Driving just a little bit is not likely to do any measurable damage. The engine will run fine. There is a small but increased risk of debris damaging the air flow sensor. If all the piping is connected the chance of a large particle getting through is small. Dust will increase engine wear. It is a matter of increased risk. The longer you drive the more the risk and don't drive on a gravel road.
