Are special clamps for carburetor connections neccessary?

[MN_Scoot]

The intake manifold to carburetor connection and carburetor to air box connection both have clamps like this one from the factory:

I have been having trouble finding clamps for a 50cc (plenty are available for the 150cc and I've confirmed those won't fit by trying out.

Can I just use the standard hose clamp like this: http://www.zoro.com/ideal-hose-clamp-12-to-1-14in-sae-12-ss-pk10-5712/i/G1492276/?utm_source=google_shopping&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Google_Shopping_Feed&gclid=CKK6m6iXq8UCFQwzaQodTI4A0Q&gclsrc=aw.ds

…or is there a reason top have the specific type of clamp they use from the factory?

Thanks.

Dam, you could use a tie wrap.

Should be fine. Tough to pull of the hose even with the clamp off.

Actually you should always carry tie wraps incase one of those cheap chinese fuel clamps fail like one already did on my scooter causing a fuel leak.

Use zinc plated hose clamps, they never rust. Any old hose clamp will do great though, the factory ones tend to strip out easy.
