Hose Heavy
New radiator hose leaking at clamps…?
I have a 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS and just changed out the radiator hoses and put clamps on. The hoses are made for my car and are from OBX Racing, and the clamps are the kind you tighten with a socket or screwdriver. The first week it seemed ok, but the other day I noticed all hoses are leaking because it seems the clamps aren’t tight enough. I tightened as tight as they’ll go, to the point of actually pulling one apart from over tightening, but it’s still leaking.
I’m wondering if it’s the clamps, or another problem. What about using stop leak additive for my radiator or trying some heavy duty wire hose clamps like on tractors? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
The screw type clamps are great. when changing hoses the clamps are supposed to be retightened after warming the car to operating temperature. Also buy the good screw type hose clamps there are some cheapies out there.
