Default please help.. b16a problems

ok so here it is, i just swaped a b16a obd0 in my 91 dx, and well i ran into 2 problems... ok so #1 vacuum diagram.. i dont have have a vacuum nipple on my trottle body that goes to the lower nipple on the carcol canister. or do i have a dashpot on the trottle body, my map sensor is on the top of the trottlbody. .. any body know where i get the vacuum line to go in to the carcol can? i guess the tb is off like a 99 si b16a2... #2 problem, i got the motor running and all but sometimes when accelirating it stumbles pretty bad and if you rev it a lil its fine. but if you drive normal and soft it stumbles pretty bad and then it just kicks in like normal... anybody got any ideas? whould the vacuum on the lower nipple of the carcol can not hooked up cause this?

you can just get rid of the old map on the firewall all you need is the one map plug thats allready pluged into your throttle body. the charcoal can doesnt matter either infact people just get rid of those sometimes. just as long as there is no open vacum ports on the motor. for problem number 2 is your timing good? and are you getting a cel?

Which ECU are you running in the car? Is it always at a certain RPM when it kinda sputters if you will?

You need to wire up both O2's to the right spot on the ECU if you are running the PR3 ECU, don't piggy back them

Just T off another vaccum port on the intake, all your charcoal canister does is purge the excessive HydroCarbons back into your intake so that your engine can burn them to keep the Hippies happy.
