"S" hose clamps

[glenndeweirdt]

I am changing the oil on my '83 SC. Decided to change "S" hose from oil tank. Forgot to order new clamps. Should I use old nasty clamps, order OEM, or can I just use stainless hose clamps from auto parts store.

The old clamps are fine. Just clean them and reuse.

Great! They cleaned up beautifully. A torque setting or eyeball?
