Default MAP sensor vacuum line

Hey everyone my hose from the MAP sensor has snapped and Im having the hardest time finding a replacement. I've been googling like crazy and went to both advanced and napa and couldn't find exactly what I needed. I bought some thin vacuum hose about the size of the current line from advanced and I'm curious if that will be sufficient enough of a hose from the sensor to the intake manifold on my 95 xj. my plan so far is to zip tie the hose on each end and tape over it. i know that's not the best way to do it but any suggestions or a location of where I can purchase this line will be greatly appreciated, this thing has been idling weird, stumbling like a drunk girl leaving the bar and a not so pleasing exhaust smell that I cannot wait to get rid of because its sitting in the driveway until I get it straightened out because its my only vehicle. thanks in advance for any help

Napa, you can't just buy the one line but you can buy the rear assembly for 20 something bucks

Here you go. I purchased this about 2 months ago when I replaced my ccv lines. The smallest one goes to the maf I believe.

Just ordered that whole kit, thank you! Would that replacement hose as mentioned work in the mean time or is that a bad idea?

If it works you will know it and that's fine, if it doesn't you will know it, the jeep will pretty much run like crap and almost lope.
Go ahead and do it if it works but if not I'd get it fixed without driving ASAP

I have run the rubber hose for a while before. It was fine. i had it on mine for months of use. It would still be there if I didn't find a good one at pick and pull on my last trip haha.

Just make sure the hose is sturdy enough not to collapse under vacuum.

I ended up super glueing the hose where the crack was on the inside and the outside and then electrical taped it. Works perfectly fine just waiting for the new hoses
