I didnt do any T's on the passenger side, all driver. and I did not reset anything after I did mine, but I had no check engine light to begin with- i was doing a tune up when I broke the lines, so I replaced them all before I started the truck again.

Oh i will thankfully so far none of the plastic lines i took off were not even broken as old as they were! Believe it or not, except the red 1 i broke replacing it. The only ones i have left go to the TAD and TAB solenoids thats where my other tee
has to go because, the vac lines on the bottom are tied together. The ones that came from the diverter valve and smog pump, im not replacing them because of no smog pump. Im just going to cap off the top ports on the solenoids! Thanks again

I got all the plastic vacuum lines, replaced yesterday and no leaks! Now all i have to do is finish taking off the rest of the smog pump junk off and weld up the injection pump port in the exhaust pipe! Thanks again folks!
