I have a '01 1.6L accent. The service engine light recently came on and when I went to Autozone to get the codes read the guy said it is showing fat and said there is a leak in one of the vacuum hoses?
Question: How do I locate the leak and is it hard to replace a vacuum hose?

no hoses are easy to change but if you could tell us what the code number is it would help us help you

Would starter fluid spray work just as good?

Hey guys. I still have this code on my car. I bought a new gas cap with no results. I got some carb cleaner and sprayed every place I saw a hose with no reaction.
Can someone give me another thing to look for ?
