Default replacing vacuum hoses..97 a42.8qm

hey guys.. does anybody know a good resource to show me how to replace the braided vacuum hoses? One is leaking and setting off the CEL and cyl-6 is misfiring. Can some1 with a pretty decent knowledge of cars fix this prob, or should I just have it done? Also, i am veryyy limited on tools because I am at school right now, so what do you guys think?? Thanks!

Default Here's the exact process..

Pull off the old vacuum line. Cut a NEW length of line (recommend rubber vac line from Napa/Pep Boys). Re-attach lines to their original locations. Zip-tie.

Aren't you glad you just saved yourself $75?
