Can't really help with the vacuum line, I'll see if I can find one of the writeups on it though. But from the research I've done on the subject for the, I'd take a look at this for the top end

Should be which ever one on the side of the TB is sucking in. Pull the hoses off and put your thumb on it, if it sticks, use it.

When i did mine, i put in the brake booster vacuum line (per some instructions that were posted on this site)

It works REALLY well, i noticed a difference in my MPG right away (about 20 more miles per tank)

Here you go... i followed these directions when i did mine. There is going to be a CRAP load of smoke when you start it up, so make sure you are in a very well ventilated area...

+3 on the brake booster hose i always do it this way.I will say though if it is blowing a lot of smoke its because youre pouring it in to fast which will cause fouling of the plugs and misfiring. Use the smoke of as an indicator of how rich youre making it never go to much.
