This may sound dumb but where are the vacuum hoses.... I heard that i need to replace mine so my car could start up normal again instead of this "Oh i'm turning on, i'm turning on, WAIT, WAIT!!!! NOOOOO i'm shutting down."

Maybe it's flooding out? Vacuum hoses are mostly on the left side of the engine near the four solenoids over there. The attached jpg shows an example of a few vacuum hoses on a 86 non turbo car.

There's nothing called a vacuum actuator. Lead me to the thead you read that on and maybe it can be figured out from there.
