Hi all.

I'm ready to install these (image): http://tinyurl.com/pchha54 into my
'88 Westy.

Searching the archives, there seems to be 2 different camps on
re-using the OEM coolant hose spring clamps:

- re using them is ok
- don't re use. Install new German type screw clamps.

Getting the German type clamps means ordering them online; I'd rather
not wait. However. I do see the advantages to using them.

Assuming proper parts prep, will re-using the OEM spring clamps ensure
a leak free union?

Thanks!

Neil.
