No man those are all Air.......vacuum hoses.   I have a very vague picture with a diagram.    Im looking for a photo of them installed.......or some that knows how to put them.

I tryed to rig it with 3 way tee but the engine wont idle right.     Can anyone please help me?   Im trying to put it back to factory so the car will run smoothly. 

 I attached a photo of the vague photo I have.

Ahhhhhh... this is frustrating......     HELP

Excellent.      :)

The problem I have is that I lost two hoses.   So I need to know what gos connected to each hose ?  I have like 5 connections plus the one under the throttle body.   and Idle Air Control Valve

I cant just seem to make sense of it. 

Awsome photo tho.   :D

Can you help Me out with that brother?    :P

No Im talking about
 how all the vaccum hoses go connected and to what each hose gos connected.   

For example the bottom of the throttle body.....Idle air control motor...
ect....

Attached is a very rudimentary update to your original pic.
Hope it helps.

You can kind of make it out if you study these pics but if you don't remember it in person then it might be a little hard to follow?

Where do you live? I live in Southwest Ohio and would be more than happy to drop by and help set it up if its within an hour or so.
