Using block off plates or plugging the AIS hose should yield the same results. In other words, if you have popping with AIS hose plugged you will have popping with block off plates installed. Unless you plugged wrong hose or didn't plug it fully.
As far as the AIS pump burning up. I don't believe it is an actual pump. It is listed in the parts catalogue as a valve. A valve would just open and close to allow fresh air to enter exhaust stream through vacuum.
So if using block off plates or plugging the AIS hose is suppose to stop the popping but doesn't what's the point?
