Default Vaccum problems (need serious help)

hey i need some real help .. i was working on my 1987 honda accord lxi last night and pulled the vaccum hose rummong rom the manifolt to what i think is a vaccum reserve canister . im not sure what it is , but i know it let air out of it . when i tarted the car up it sounded bad , real bad , it was shaking and when i would rev it it didnt sound good at all. i started it up a couple more time , let it run and slowly gave it some gas , slowly reving it. the more i did it the better it sounded . i turned it off and started it up . it sounds better , but im afrais to take it on the road and see what happens. and i in deep SH*T?

that's a vacuum reservoir. when you start the car just pump the brakes a couple of times and it will refill itself. no worries about removing that vacuum line you didn't break anything.
