Vacuum hose mess!

Yea, so today I figured I'd try to do my valve cover gaskets and intake manifold gaskets, however, even though I marked all my hoses I still got them all mixed up.

Does anyone have a good well put out and easily explained guide or photo diagrams of the vacuum hose layout? My truck is my daily. So I need to get it done tomorrow, but I don't want to kill it in the process.

Before I did this no smoke came from the tail pipe, but now it smokes if he helps. I can probably get some pics up soon.

Thanks!

3vze. I found a video where the guy tracks his hoses, but his has a different throttle body and some different hose orders I think.

Use the link provided, a few youtube videos have the hose order completely wrong lol. Read the comments on those videos.

Down the road consider making some new vacuum hoses of longer length and relocating the pcv valve off of the valve cover so you have the ability to simply flip the manifold over and onto the passenger side fender in the future (without unhooking anything).
 
lol, holy shit, my charcoal canister wasn't even hooked up to the line off the throttle body on the top.

This car was owned by gypsys. Meaning rock hard hoses and superglue to repair said hoses.

So this line busted. The line with fuel running through it.

What's that called so I can order it?
 
Other than that, it seems good to go. The idle was floating between 800 and 1000, and that's with my mad Maxed cold air intake, but this line was ****ed so it had a rough blub blub type idle.
