oil leak opinions
I have an annoying oil leak. It is coming from where the a hose connects to the bottom of the oil reservoir. Here is a picture (taken looking straight up the closest hose in is question):
![]() Here is question I need your opinions on. What should I replace? Just the clamp or do you think the hose is bad as well? The clamp is as tight as it will go. I was thinking about putting a radiator hose clamp on it and just cincing it down. I am asking this question now because I only get one shot at this...after I drain the oil. So I really want to make sure I get it the first time. Thanx, DIO |

If the threads on the clamp aren't stripped out and you have tightened it down as tight as you can and it still leaks you are probably looking at a new hose.
