Only see 1/4" hose clamps at the auto store. Can I use these on the 5/32" vacuum hoses?

1/4"???
That's pretty small. Most auto stores only go down to about a #4, which is about "pinky size" and isn't small enough for small vacuum lines (like the one from the intake to the bypass valve, for instance). If the hose is already snug, a small nylon ziptie might be a cleaner solution.
Cheers,
