Are you sure you don't have a vacuum leak anywhere? Spray some carb or throttle body cleaner around and listen for a change in RPMs.

I have no help and once I start it I have to keep some gas on it, my vacuum lines may be out of wack, I have looked for a diagram so I'm sure they're right but I can't find any.

It may be hard to find vacuum diagram as they were usually on a sticker on the grill support.

Hmm, ill have to look, there is one large hose and two almost identicle smaller ones coming out of the left side of my intake, I just noticed one had a tiny crack at the base. I have to wait until about 10 pm to get some hose. Being that they're older should I just relaxed them. Could that be my fix?

I just am not sure if they may have gotten mixed up, the smaller ones that is, would that foul it up?

I cleaned and reconnected my egr, even though they have a cutoff plate between it and the mount, I look at the catalyst pic and my hoses on either side of the intake have little M's where they go but don't tell you which is which, the top on either side I am sure of (they're larger hose) but the middle and bottom I'm not sure of, I just hope that it don't matter the position, bit I'm sure it does.
