I think you'll find the Haynes manual useful. Prior to adjusting the curb idle speed make sure the carb switch is clean and is making a good ground, that way the computer knows that the engine is at idle and that there is no timing advance which would increase idle speed. Good show that the car passed emissions!!
With regards to the carbon canister I know of no canister with a connection on the bottom , you should have the following:
Carb bowl vent, tank vent , purge line to base of carb and the small vacuum line to top of canister at the cap... there is another attachment point for a 3/8" hose at the centre tower below the cap and that one is stoppered.
Once you get the book the vacuum hose diagrams are in the Engine controls section that will help you out too.
