yeah, leave it out and see what happens when your lude blows up!

NAH...To reset the computer, I normally pull BOTH fuses. Leave them out for 20 min. reinstall, then reconnect battery. start and idle till normal engine temp is reached. GUARANTEE reset and you will feel the difference.
But you can try to drive without the fuse....when you smell smoke...then you can say

I shouldve drove with it in!
YOu're forgetting the fuse is there cause if there's an elec surge in your system, the fuse PROTECTS your ecu from anything more than 15 amps will FRY your ecu...then you can roll down the hill and think about doing that again...
