Vaccume hoses?
 
I'm trying to keep my baby as new as July of 94, but I need a little help. Is there anyway anyone could take a picture of their vaccume hoses or explain where each one is? Also, I changed the one that connects under the upper manifold and goes into your passenger side where the GT/Cobra/tribar emblem is. I was given the vaccume hose by the guys up at Autozone, and didn't want to sound greedy and ask for a 90 degree bend, well I wonder if that is still a leak because I used the old 90 bend and put it on the little canister in the fender. Are there any hidden hoses that I should replace? Any help is appreciated!

If you suspect a line to have a leak, hook up a vacuum pump to one end, plug the other with your thumb or something and apply a vacuum. If the vacuum doesn’t hold, then you have a leak. You can pick up a hood hand vacuum pump (e.g. Mityvac) from your local auto parts store.

Good luck...

You can do the same with a cigar or smoke machine, but I'm confused as to what things are vaccume hoses.
