    I have it double clamped right now, and once in a while it still seeps a little. I’ll try to get some pics tomorrow

    I’m thinking on getting a bigger radiator for the summer, just because it’s looking like I can afford it and not worry about it. So I might buy that and use it.

    Works like a dream, just a small dab or two on one finger then smear it around the clamping location. (On the pipe, not the hose)

    Had this issue on pitted connectors, the rtv is just enough to get a good seal and keep things from seeping.
