you should have a vacuum diagram on the cover for the throttle cable.

Can you specify a little more when you say "still not good"? because I'm not sure what your specific issue is. If you're still smoking, it's not gonna be vacuum lines out of place that cause it.

Or on the under side of the hood. That's where I have the routing on my cars.

I would think the routing should be very similar as the '93 MY minus the EGR since it's pretty much the same engine.

Default Still smoking

Yes it still smokes a bit but I was just trying to make sure the vaccum hoses were right because it's still misfiring and rough idle but once the rpm's are adove 3,000 it sounds like a champ.

The car should not misfire at any rpm. You can't drive around over 3,000 rpm's. Matter of fact, I almost never see 3,000 rpms.

Have you done a stage 0? How old are the spark plugs and wires?
