Re: removing cruise control.

Disconnect the cable to the TB , plug the vac line that comes from the intake and remove everything else that is connected to There is a vac line that runs through the firewall to the brake switch

Did you read what I wrote above?
A vac source from the intake and a vac release line through firewall to brake switch
The vac source line should be T'ed of the line from intake to vac canister

Re: removing cruise control.

Just pull the T connecting the vacuum from the intake and get a connector that only connects the intake to the vacuum canister. If you want to pull the hose going into the fire wall also like I did then do so, cap the vacuum line under the dash, and get a 1 1/2 inch hole plug and insert in hole in firewall. rest should be common sense.
