Default Too much fuel?

Whats up guys I put on the new intake manifold today, after I finished everything I started it and ran good at idile, when I put it in drive <automatic trans> it seem to run rough when I first hit the throttle but smoothes out at higher speeds. A buddy said it was running rich another said that smelled like it was taking in too much fuel. any thoughts? any body have a diagram of all the vacume hose's? Im pretty sure I hooked everthing up right but I need to be sure.

most likely a vacuum leak. get a can of FI cleaner and spray around the manifold. if the roughness settles youve found your leak.

When it's a vacume leak it'll run lean. You need to check you intake hose where it bolts to the throttle body. Make sure the clamp is tight.

I got a obd2 scan and 2 codes came up, 1 a misfire on cylinder 2 , and IAT circuit (p0113) (p0302) Is it common that a vacuume leak around cylinder 2 would cause the misfire?
