When you plug it, does it run rough for a second and then even out? if so it is best to plug it.

If not, go to a parts store and by a small cone filter and use that to cap it off.

No I am currently getting horrible gas mileage so by taking that vacuum line off it leans out the motor but I think I will just cap it off

LOL how long have you had a Jeep? Just kidding, Bad gas mileage goes with big tires and low gears and a 4.? I6. Capping/Plugging the vac line is always the smart move. Good luck.
