throttle air bypass valve?

I can unhook this @#$% thing without any noticeable change but the car runs fine. What does this mean?

The rpm's in my car would jump higher in between shifts & when I put it in neutral on my way to a stop, untill I stopped. It was driving me crazy, so I toke it off & made a plate to cover the holes. That seemed to solve that problem, but created a new one, the car acts like it has no choke, having to give it gas for a couple of minutes before it would stay running. I'm might try that plate to go in between it & t.b. with two adj. screws, I heard that might work (no idle problems & good choke).
