do i need to use the leak detection pump or will the ECU be ok without it? im not quite sure if it will disable the engine if it is not connected. thanks in advance.

you will get this code (P1473) all the time, but it will not affect the way the engine runs whatsoever.

I see your from calf. too, you might give some consideration to including the pump while you doing your swap. That's if your going to register it. It's cool to do a swap forward as long as it includes all the emission systems. If you don't, and get forced into going to an inspection station. Well you can bet it will cost time and money way more than doing it up front.
It's also getting damn tough to find a place that will pass anything.
Just a thought.

I believe all the LDP does is suck on the evap hoses and checks for leaks in the system. I doesnt do anything to prevent leaks aside from inform the driver that a leak is present by turning on the MIL.
