Brake booster hose, nice and fat and easy to access.

I would suspect partially clogged fuel injectors vs vacuum leak if your not getting any codes.

Cheapest way is to cover the throttle body with tape, disconnect the brake booster line from the booster side then puff a cigar into it.

Worked for me.
