Smile my car might have vacuum leaks/help identify hoses

Guys,

I stopped at the stop light. The light turn green, I released the break and pressed the gas and then it feel like the car is going to stall but not. I am not quite sure if it is caused by the vacuum leaks or not. But, I will to use the Carb/throttle Cleaner to test it.

But, which hoses are the vacuum lines. Is the one attached to the PCV also a vacuum line? or the ones on throttle body?

I have two pics from the part website here.



or



Thanks

Why are you spraying carb cleaner into vacuum lines? Just pull intake tube off of the throttle body and spay a little bit in there if you are trying to clean the throttle body. Its not that expensive to replace vacuum lines and its pretty easy to do. Just replace them all and be sure you put the right hoses on there or at least make sure you clamp tehm down sufficiently.
