The one on that connects to the top right?

Replaced my coolant expansion tank and now this one is leaking next to the clamp....

Can I cut off an inch or two until I can order one and get it replaced?

Yes as long as it is not so short that it stresses the hose. Had the issue with mine, snipped of 1/2" and never replaced it. That was almost a year ago.

 

Are you using the factory clamp? I changed mine to a "worm" clamp?? I think that's what it's called!! The kind that screws tight. It stopped the leak!! Those crimp clamps never seem to seal properly after they're reused. At least in my experience.

 

I actually did replace it with the screw clamp, but am going to trim some off and re-clamp and see what happens

 

Take the snipped off end to any autoparts store and get a piece long enough to replace the old one. Nothing special about it.
