Netters
Does anyone know the pressure in a line running in the transmission cooling
system?
The reason I ask is that I have an in-line filter and cooler and am
wondering if I Really need to be double clamping every connection. I've
slightly flared the steel tubing and the cooler and the filter have a form
of bubble flair on their ends.
I've always done this my entire life and double clamped as well.....but
that certainly doesn't make it right.
What I want to hear is 'not necessary' to double band clamp the rubber bits
to the steel tubing...
Tks
Mike

I know very well how you think !
I decided to throw all caution to the wind and went with one clamp per
joint. Should I not be able to sleep tonight, I have a flashlight and a
can full of clams ..
