DISA Valve Question

Hi guys,

I am having the rattling DISA syndrome, i just confirmed it today through disconnecting it on idle, and the noise disappeared. I am planning to get it replaced in few weeks, however, I have the below question:

Until I replace it, should i leave it connected or disconnected? I want to minimize the chance of breaking it and damaging the engine (i heard that it can break and damage the engine)

a "bonus" question: in case disconnecting it makes it "unbreakable" what if i leave it disconnected for good? anyone has done it before?

Thanks
