One at rear (greyish by torchlight) going to EGR valve, another at rear (black) going to a solenoid valve near dispack which might be something to do with carbon canister. Ours is a manual transmission btw, so may be different.

Ditto here...on mine it was the actual stop on the throttle body (screw with a slot in and a lock nut at the bottom of it; sits horizontally pointing to the front of the car. Loosen it off, then screw it in until it just makes contact with the arm, then do the locknut back up.

Why didn't i get one of these years ago???
