Default Silly question, Hose clips.

Jubilee clips for coolant pipes/boost hoses. Should these be "USE ONCE" items.

Silly silly question, just having a knightmare sealing some of the hoses on escort. Boost hoses puling off.

DOH, I dunno, Might pop to halfords and spend a worth while Ł30 on new clips. Last thing I was is for a water pipe to come off leak. If you knew my luck you'd understand.

Wot type of hose clips are they.NOT wot hoses.
Not been up long Sorry

What are those super fancy jubilee clips called? Look like they have bolt at the top instead of a screw.

Samco used to have some availiable. They have flat bottoms on the contact to hose side. Stops the hose getting the ridged effect which can lead to failure.



They also do complete kits for cars.
