Losing coolant

Rad. caps are not expensive. About 2 years ago I was loosing some coolant and was instructed by my mechanic to use constant tension clamps on all of the silicone hose. They are spendy. I used the cone variety rather than the spring type.

Mine is 7lb., old, but pressure tested good. Only leaks are temp
related(outside temp), and coming from clamps. I installed new rad
last year. No lose after clamp tighting. Remember there is a torque
rating on tighting the clamps and some clamps are made offshore. That
throws the
torque rating out the window.
