Start eliminating possible causes. Plugs, wires, distributor, fuel filter, etc. If you haven't done any basic maintenance in a while, it may be time to replace most of this stuff anyway.

your best bet for the vacume line is either get a vacume diagram or post a pic.. we might be able to edit the pic for you!

obvious question. If it's leaking that badly why haven't you replaced it?
