Click to expand...

one of the two in the front is unused (usually loops back to another vac port under the intake). the other one is for the charcoal canister. there is no difference between a MAP and a BP sensor, except for how you hook them up...you did it right.

in the back, one goes to the vacuum tree on the firewall for the brake booster, one goes to the fuel pressure regulator, and one goes to the MAP ( or in your case not to the MAP) one goes also to the tab/tad/egr solonoids, and one goes to the pcv valve.

on the front, one goes to the charcoal canister.
