Fuel consumption goes down but power will go up since your burning pure air and fuel and no half burnt crap that's bad for the environment :lol: not enough that you'll notice anything though

The EML will come on from time to time just because the sensor will realise nothing is flowing through it but it should go off fairly quick

If your getting a new one leave it unblanked for awhile just to make sure the issue is sorted and then it's up to you whether or not to blank it again
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:
