    Do you use hose clamps on the Push Lock fittings as I read somewhere they were not required, I am concerned about the heat when used in the oil system as I used boiling water to install them.

    When used with the correct hose, no clamps are used or needed. If you’re a belt and suspender guy, I don’t think it hurts to use a clamp too.
