Don't Screw It!
Ishay,
Your radiator hoses will always develop leaks at the clamps as long as you continue to use screw-type (worm gear) hose clamps to replace the original spring-type clamps. Screw clamps do not distribute their grip evenly around the hose and have a high pressure point directly under the screw mechanism. Over time the hose will leak at that point. Spring-type clamps distribute their grip more evenly around the hose and the hose will last longer.
Invest in a pair of spring-clamp pliers to make installation easier. Replace all of your hoses and use the proper size spring clamps.
If this was helpful, please click the Thanks button on the bottom right.
