ok bloozeberry sent me a good diagram to help im posting this up for others.. now am i krazy here or does the cave say the complete opposite of the manual and if so which is correct.. please confirm this im done with all lines and this is just urking me. or let me know if im crazy and mixing these up but the big purge line coming out of the canister is the bottom nozzle.

cave ---------------
Fuel Vapor Recovery Canister:

This device catches vapor from the fuel tank. It uses 2 vacuum lines. The large (purge) line is connected to manifold vacuum. This line is used to ventilate the canister. The smaller (control) line is connected to the main bore of the throttle body and only opens the purge valve beyond a certain amount of throttle.
manual is showing the small line being the manifold vacuum...

Cave was written how EVAP should work.
But GM decided to plumbed many EVAP can "backward."

Why? Don't know. Fiero and many others are plumbed this way.

Just match size on EVAP port to line size.

I'll update cave soon....
