I have a chevrolet cavalier LS 2.2 1996. Take long to start the engine. The starter, fuel pump and fuel filter are new. When you turn the engine works well. This problem, damage the starter and I had to replace. Pardon my English, I do not write very well. When the car starts the engine, it works perfectly. The whole problem is to start the engine.

Scan for codes and check fuel pressure.

I take it to AutoZone and performed the scan. He says he could be a vacuum hose. But I do not know what that is. How I can make the fuel pressure test myself? Or How I can find the vacuum hose that maybe is damage?

A vacuum hose wouldn't stop the car form starting. See if auto zone has apressure gauge to rent to check your pressure.
Parts tores are parts guys not mechanics. If it continues take it to a pro and get a good opinion
