another 3.6 fuel line question...
recently replaced all my fuel lines and i noticed when i first tried to start the car that there was fuel coming out of the fuel filter (in the engine bay). i tightened the banjo bolt and if i nudge the hose i can hear pressure leaking from the hose fitting. i have this type of fuel hose clamp (see first pic).
 are there special requirements for clamps rated for fuel injection due to working pressure? thinking i need to replace clamps to this style, thoughts?

60 PSI is what your dealing with.
Crimped hose is usually used.

Those top clamps are pretty useless.

swapped out the 4 in the engine bay today (supply to filter, filter to regulator line, regulator line and return. i noticed the shop also used the "bad ones" at the tank. i guess i need to trace them throughout the system and replace them. (#*$%&!)
