Default I fixed a vacume line and now it misses worse?

I noticed underneathe the upper intake manifold there is a vaccume line coming out from the intake manifold right behind the distributer, well I noticed my was leaking very bad and I thought thats what was making my car miss from idle to 1500 or so whenever I started the car, and it goes away after like 3 minutes of driving, Well after I replaced the vaccume line it misses worse and misses and doesnt go away, so its missing all the time, what could have caused this?

Where does the other end of the vacuum line lead to? It might be a bad part connected with the ECU.
If so, unplug it at the part, plug the hose, then see what happens.

Okay, I went out and looked at my Lincoln, the hose coming from the front underneath the intake leads to the right front corner of the engine compartment to the charcoal canister. I had a leak there before too, and was getting a code from the computer for the charcoal canister solenoid, so I just plugged the hose and it runs fine?
