Hi all. Just installed all new high pressure (7mm ID) FI hose in engine bay. I used 7/16" - 1/2" dia. range flared stainless clamps. The OD of new line is just over 1/2" (13 mm) Upon viewing with fresh eyes, the "bottom" (under bolt) of some of the clamps is buckling a bit. Did I use the correct size clamps, and is it possible to over tighten them? TIA, Neil. Neil Nicholson. 1981 air cooled Westfalia.
