Antifreeze leak - pairodice - 05-09-2026

Getting ready to head to the NoRally Rally in TN and find a huge blood stain on the floor under the engine… it’s antifreeze and I found the culprit - one of the hose bib hoses clamps is loose or so I thought - I readjusted the clamp (self tensioning type) and added another up higher on the hose. Could the hose have expanded? I did notice that ALL of the valves are closed but my engine ran perfectly and the heat stayed in range from OK to MO to AL over 1000 miles. Not sure if I should snip off some of the hose and reclamp or maybe get a better clamp… anyway I have to get some more Final Charge :-( still a small leak…

A trip to NAPA and got food hose clamps a male to male 3/4” nipple and a 2’ section of hose and more coolant and problem is solved!
