pinhole vaccume leak..

i know i SHOULD just replace it..

but im kinda curious how bad of an idea it would be to just slap some ductape on it.. and then maybe zip tie it for a quick fix.

Pinhole leak in what? A vac line? Take a trip to the autoparts store and replace it.

duct tape may stop the leak for a short time, but the zip tie will collapse the hose making the situation worse.
