    From an old fart...I always use spring tension clamps on coolant lines. Rubber expands and contracts greatly in that hot environment....eventually the rubber looses it's rebound under a stationary clamp and becomes compressed and loose. The spring type clamp is always squeezing inward, regardless of how much the rubber shrinks.

    • @gibsonwill18
      @gibsonwill18 6 місяців тому +4

      Agreed. Was surprised to see him replace a crimp with a crimp. Was expecting to see a constant tension spring type clamp as you mentioned. He hasn’t seen his leak yet but it’s the same methodology as the ford part so no brainer it will expand out all the same. Maybe the after market clamps are slightly better quality but not enough to matter.

    • @dm-zx7xb
      @dm-zx7xb 6 місяців тому +4

      I always use screw clamps if reusing the old crushed rubber hose. Unless there's enough hose to cut off the portion that 'took a set', the spring clamps don't usually put enough pressure on the rubber hose because it only has a defined amount of tension and squeeze travel. Once you put enough tension on a screw clamp, it will probably bond the hose to the nipple after a year or so and you'll have to use a hose pick to get them separated. Plus it's probably easier to tighten a screw clamp in a difficult area when on a trip with a screwdriver than trying to get pliers on it on the side of the road if it ever was was to leak.

    • @phazerboy
      @phazerboy 5 місяців тому

      Good strong spring clamps beat screw or worm drive clamps as they apply constant tension which will take up the slack of the compressed hose. They are self adjusting.

      I’m with you. Although a lot of People criticize worm clamps, evidently they either over tighten them or don’t tighten them enough because I’ve been repairing cars since I was a young teen working with my dad in the 1970s. I’ve never had problems with worm clamps. If I have the access and need to replace a clamp, I usually use a worm clamp.

      I was going to say, aftermarket companies should offer an aluminum replacement, so you can avoid shelling out big bucks for the whole shebang. I’ve used Dorman t-fittings many times on grand caravan heater hose t-fittings instead of ordering the entire spaghetti mess sold from the dealer, and it saves the customer lots of $$ in the end

    When I worked at ford for 3 months in a heavy truck shop I was astounded at the amount of inferior plastic components on a 6.7 powerstroke. Even removing coolant hoses to perform warranty repairs would sometimes lead to leaks after the fact. GM’s have some plastic pieces but Ford is the top when it comes to overpriced poor quality parts.
