I recently acquired a '97 Altima after an engine swap was abandoned. I now have the new engine in place, but I'm missing a few key things.
1.) where does the black/yellow ground wire from the battery terminal bolt into?
2.) does anyone have any photos or diagrams detailing what hoses go where? Mainly the hose coming out of the valve cover, the return hoses on the left side of the engine leading to the fire wall, and the hoses coming out of the charcole canister.
any help would be worth it, Thanks guys.

The Black/Yellow ground cable fastens to the wheel well with a sheet metal screw just under the wire harness that attaches to the battery tray.
The hose from the valve cover connects to the air intake hose between the MAFS and the throttle body.
The little vacuum hose on top of the charcoal canister connects to the metal "T" on the exhaust back pressure transducer that continues to the EGR valve.
The canister hose directly below the little signal hose has a green band and connects to the bottom of the intake manifold.
The hose from the center of the canister goes to the fuel tank.
The return hose? The 1/2"? Uses a metal pipe running across toward the passenger side with a hose on each end to connect from the bottom of the intake manifold to the vacuum check valve and a third hose connects the vacuum check valve to the brake booster.
The small vacuum hose under the booster hose goes from the cruise control servo to a vacuum reservoir inside the car.
