3-way hose (at water pump) leak?


Recommended Posts

Well I thought I was finished...just replaced all hoses Im the car, used the original spring clamps, and now have leaks at the 3-way hose. After a few days and 3 full warm up cycles/air bleed it started at 1 port (under pressure) AMD has now migrated to all 3. I replaced 2 ports with standard screw clamps...still leaks at very end of hose. Do I need to try a heavier built t-clamp? Porous aftermarket hose? It's funny this is the ONLY leak...and all 3 ports :( Thanks in advance!

Be sure they are seated properly, straight and far enough on the pipe. There is a rib on the pipe that the hose needs to go beyond, and enough so that the clamp has enough room to work effectively. The clamp goes on past that rib and needs to be snug. Certainly do not use old clamps.
