Yes do plug it, I was told by my volvo mechanic that it will not effect anything it was just to aid some sort of actuator inside of the older style fuel accumulators but the new ones have a spring or something that does the same job, I just cant quite remember what the reasoning was behind it right now. I did that on my car about 10, 000 km ago and have had no problems, I disconnected the line from the tank and removed it and filled the tip of the connector at the tank with some epoxy.

Hope this helps
