Vaccum line at throttle body
1995 Bonneville SE
I needed to get the new elbow and tee that attach to the throttle body on my bonny. Right now the elbow is attached to the upper barb and the tee attached to the lower barb coming of the throttle body. When I went to the dealer to get these parts their diagram showed them in reverse order. I tried this but the way the elbow is made and with a longer leg than the tee and the upper barb sets farther back on the manifold so I don't see the dealers diagram being correct.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this and what is correct. I have pic'* if needed. (Can I post pics in the forum? I see a few on some of the threads.)

On my '95 SE, the top fitting on the throttle body is an elbow that feeds vacuum to the vapor canister purge valve. The fitting underneath is a tee fitting that feeds the vacuum modulator on the trans and the fuel pressure regulator.

Please post pictures.
Everything Bill said above he is very smart.
This is a picture of my 96 Regal L36 motor.
The pictures that the GM parts people order from are wrong for my car also.
I think if you have them look at the pictures for a 96 Bonny SE it will show the vacuum lines for your 95.
I think a Bonny forum member gave me the correct part number for the lower vacuum pipe with the rubber T.
The part number for the lower vacuum line with the rubber “T” is # 24506302.

Guys, thanks for the responses. I have the parts and it sounds like my system is connected correctly it looks like the Regal pic and is connected like Bill'*.
Thanks again just wanted to double check that everything was correct as installed.
