id not use mikalors if you want it to clamp firmly.

not unless you get the sizes dead right, as there no room for adjustment like with proper jubilee clips...

i binned mine right off

nice hose clamps can be bought from a hose specialist.

Not expensive at all.

if you made sure you ordered the right parts then they would have clamped firmly, its not hard, get a vernier caliper & measure the outside diameter of the hose (better if hose is fitted as this can increase diamater by a couple of mm)
