I have a 96 chevy blazer that won't start without putting starting fluid in the throttle body intake. When I try to shift it into gear it dies. I got a diagnostic check that told me it was either my vacuum hoses, MAF sensor, or MAP sensor. I changed the MAP sensor and it didn't fix my problem. I'm not sure where all my vacuum hoses are located. Can someone please give me an idea of where they are located or where to go from here? I forgot to add that I just changed my starter because of it grinding.

THere are vacuum hoses all around and on the engine. As far as the leak, I would recommend checking fuel pressure before looking any further. Here is a how to:

If you need a gauge, chances are the local parts store will rent or lend the tool.

Let me know what you find.
