It can be used for fuel efficiency by keeping the vacuum high when accelerating. I friend of mine had a an old Monty Carlo with one in it from the factory. Yeah, I know, what's the point in either car?

Gauge
So can i just rip it out and forget about it or is there a procedure so I don't screw other things up? Or should I hook it up to something ? I'm learning as I go here.

If it's a turbo model replace the gauge with a BOOST Gauge..
The Vacuum gauge only reads Vacuum,and all engines get air when they are running.Basically it is useless on a N/A car as it will just be something to look at..nice and blingy but not tell you what you NEED to know.
It will move the needle when the engine is on and remain at 0 when your car is Off ..or dead.
