Does the 73 2.0 L need the de-accelerator valve to operate correctly? What problems, if any, may occur without it?

No. It allows extra air into the intake on deceleration as an emissions control function. The 70-71 cars didn't even have one.
I've never ran with one and never had any problems, or noticeable differences in running. It eliminates one more thing that can go wrong. Some may argue that it is easier on the MPS diaphragm with one. |
