Stalls at stop lights 850 1996

Ok, looking at the car i found no obvious vacuum leaks. Got the gauge out and found that it was about 20" +/-.5"swing... That seemed much too constant for their not to be a leak.

I also pulled out and cleaned the MAF put it back in, and as of yet have to experience a stall. Tomorrow will come the test, because I think some of it has to do with starting from cold, but i don't really know if it matters... Also, while I was doing this I pulled off the air filter case, and I think I might have pulled out a line. The top back of the cover has two hoses outta it. One appears to be a vacuum line, and that's still connected. The other one is a harder hose, and isn't connected to anywhere now. Is this supposed to just hang down, and be like a ambient hose?

The plugs were already quite black (they have <50 miles on them) so its been running rich..

Thanks for your help...
