If your not worried about emissions, then weld it shut and remove the smog pump crap. I did on a 95 and had no drivability probs or idle probs. Another route would be to put some thread locker on it, but good luck removing it when you need to next time.

i think the red is the high temp stuff, if it comes loose again, try find it.
