You're going to have to replace the damaged hoses or new gaskets. Some trouble spots are around the I/c pipe couplings, the Throttle Body, I/c core could be leaking. When you pressure test it, you'll hear the leaks hissing out, like when a basketball is going flat.

I belive they carry them at Napa or Advanced Auto Parts. Try some of your local shops, it's a stock replacement plug. Do you have any aftermarket parts on it? If you're heavily modded I recommend the BPR7es. But that's only if you're running above 17-18 psi. They shouldn't be more than 1$ or so apiece. Also try Pep Boys.

Did you try doing your fuel filter? If not I'm thinking it's either spark plug wires, fuel filter, or a boost leak. These cars are tempremental man, you'll learn so much stuff, you'll be a certified mechanic before too long. Take some time, join a local DSM club. Try out www.DSM.org. or www.ba.dsm.org That should be for the Bay area DSM's. I don't know Cali, but those guys can help you out. Good luck!
