Ok so I might redo all my vaccum lines since I don't know what the previous owner did. I need some of your guys help with this.
I don't have the smog pump hooked up, no egr, no A/C, no cruise control on the car.
Wouldn't this mean that the only vaccum lines I need is the PCV, fuel pressure regulator, and brake booster? Anything else I NEED vaccum lines running to?
(BTW I have the vac diagram but I just don't think I need all those lines if I don't have the things listed above)

Miss connecting the A/C vacuum line and the heater, vent and defroster don't work correctly.

Even if I don't have A/C on the car anymore?

The vacuum controls the flapper valves that divert and control airflow.

Interesting. Thank you. So I guess I will leave the a/c vac lines in.
So this should be my diagram?

One other question. On the diagram you see the canister purge valve. It says to hook it up to the vaccum at the throttle body??? The only place I can think of is the little tube that runs to the oil filler neck.
