New repop Chrysler hoses with numbers and what not with new clamps. The hoses just will not stay sealed! They are fine on the nipples of the water pump. I have taken them off and cleaned them, tried putting the brown molasses stuff on them...everything!

I had a screw clamp on them and that held but the OEM style clamps just don't seem to have enough bite.
My theories are hose wall on these hoses are thinner not allowing a good clamp and possibly the clamps not getting enough pinch. I even tried bending them slightly to aid that. Any other time you have to pull a hose you almost have to cut it off. I hate antifreeze messes. I want to keep the oem look but am temped to just put the screw clamps on. I want to cut the hose back a bit to start fresh but of course the hoses are cut with barely any extra to play with.

Thoughts?

I'm seeking any history, documentation and/or previous owners for/of this vehicle. The fender tag and broadcast sheet are missing. Thanks.

VIN # WS23L8A173533.

This is scary and frustrating all in one! Imagine this happening in front of your spouse and then watching your pride and joy towed away!

Where can I get a turn signal switch assembly?

Not a Coronet, not even a B Body. It's a 81 D150 pickup. It's got the leaning tower of power with a 833 OD trans in it. 37K Orig miles. Very solid underneath, only rust is 2 pinholes on side of bed. Was the shop truck for a small Dodge dealership that lost their franchise way back when Chrysler went thru and pulled out of lot of them.

Plans for right now include carb rebuild, clutch replacement and get rid of the Lean Burn computer Future plans? Who knows, I got enough parts to build a big block...
