Default Having trouble finding this part!

Hello, I've got a 1986 944 Turbo.

I was removing the fuel rail when an old, rubber, Y-fitting for a vacuum hose broke. It appears to be #13 in the picture, Part # 928 573 727 02.

Can the correct part be found?

On many sites, including Pelican Parts and AutoAtlanta, the part is a rigid fitting with barbs, which goes inside the hoses. But I'm pretty sure the stock system actually uses molded rubber fittings which go onto the outside of the hoses.

Does anyone know where I can get this part? Maybe it's at home depot?

Any other ideas?

Thanks a lot!

That's the standard Y vacuum connector. And that's what comes up on Pelican Parts...

I just replaced several of them on my car when I did the vacuum lines... and this goes on the outside of the 4mm hard line hose. It might look rigid on the picture, and it looks like it has ridges to hold it in place inside a hose but does not. It's flexible rubber and the hose goes on the inside.

You might also want to do a venturi delete, as they often leak and there's lots of hoses.
