Charcoal Canister Removal (searched , no answer)

[MikeCordell]

Okay before I get the use the search answer, I did, not only that, I looked at every pic in the engine pic gallery. That out of the way, I removed my charcoal canister. There are 2 vacuum lines (that I know of) that go to this thing, I removed the associated splitters, etc. and now I am left with 2 open ports on my manifold. There are also 4 unused ones on the passenger side bottom of the intake manifold and 2 unused ones on the drivers side bottom. Do these need to be capped off? Should I only have 4 TOTAL of these small vacuum lines being used at the moment? Sorry if I am a bit slow but I do not learn well by reading, I learn by example and there just are not sufficient pictures and my TB looks different from most that I have seen. Do I remove the lines going to the purge control solenoid? Do I remove it altogether? If so what do I do with the wires?

All of them? My car came in the condition you see in the pictures just alot messier, basically nothing was bolted down. So I have no clue what goes on all of these various vacuum lines on the intake manifold. I mean, I am baffled by the two on the drivers side that are not being used. I have no clue what they could possibly be for. The other two over there go to the purge control solenoid and the fuel pressure solenoid from what I can see. I am no doubt, lost. Could the 4 on each side on the bottom of the intake manifold simply be connected to each other on both sides? I guess its time to pull the intake manifold and find out what really is going on down there, I'm more of a visual learner anyawys.

As soon as I have some parts in hand I'll probably take you up on that offer!! The link someone posted didn't work, thanks for the try though!
