I"m not 100% on these, but they are all vacuum lines. The large one #1 is usually for large draw items like power brakes or a vacuum distribution thingy.

#2, I'm not sure. May be pollution stuff.

#3 I have connecting to my Fuel Pressure Regulator.

...mine is an 89, I'm guessing it's the same.

I'm sure one of the experts will chime in here soon!

Thanks for the pic. I am making my hand drawn schematic of all the vacuum lines so I understand them and that I have all the parts necessary when I get ready to install everything. Pics always help!

It really doesn't matter where they go, it's all vacuum. Things that require vacuum from the plenum (that I remember, I only have 3 lines remaining on mine) are:

Brake Booster
Fuel Pressure Regulator
MAP sensor
EGR solenoid
Heater control valve
Cruise Control

Thanks.

I don't think so, the EGR solenoid gets its vacuum from the ported source at the bottom of the throttle body. Since this is a MAF plenum, #1 is the Brake Booster port, #2 goes to a two-way check valve (one output side feeds the HVAC, the other side feeds the cruise control), and #3 is for the fuel pressure regulator. If this was a SD plenum, it would have a #4 which would be for the MAP sensor.
