Fuel Hose Clamps Will Not Tighten...

[roguetoaster]

That's not really an appropriate clamp for a fuel line. Ideally you want a specific fuel line style clamp which normally does not have exposed "teeth" but instead has a solid sliding surface.

Also, most clamps have a fairly specific range of effectiveness, which that as little as a couple of mm outside of that may make it torque out/slip or clamp out of round.

Changed my fuel pump, but now the hoses are leaking due to weak clamps. Everytime I tighten the clamp it backs out, sounds stupid I know but it won’t catch the next ‘tooth.’

I picked up even smaller hose clamps from Autozone just now and the same thing happens. It just doesn’t tighten and becomes loose again...

I’m using a 1/4 socket. Any ideas?

Update: T-Clamps working beautifully; ordering a new hose for piece of mind.

Final Update: New hose is on, with the T-Clamps. No leaks! Time for a shower, and a full tank of 91. Thanks everyone for the help.
