I don't but why remove it? If the reason is because of engine dying, poor idle or hard starting please consider venting the gas cap. Since this is a carburetor engine you may have noticed fuel draining from carb when hot. Regardless of carb or EFI you may have noticed a "whoosh" when you opened the gas cap and that indicates no venting of gas tank. Causes all sorts of problems mentioned above.

Eh, it's just an annoyance to be for no specific reason. It's simply there to pass California emission laws and completely unnecessary where I am in CO, and unnecessary to me means it needs to get gone. More of an OCD thing than anything I guess.
