I'm on the other side of the fence.
Old school mechanic work is easier. Things you can diagnose with your eyes and ears. Todays cars require computers to diagnose.
Nothing tough about a bunch of vacuum hoses. Replace them all (for $10) if you suspect any vacuum leaks. Do one at a time so everything goes where it belongs. If there is still a vacuum leak check for things like intake gasket leaks. You can check with it running and carb spray or starting fluid or such.
