Constant tension hose clamps eliminate that problem.

Hi Jimmy, In the category of things to avoid-can't make all the mistakes- as silly as they may sound, be sure to put the oil filler cap back on after replacing the oil. Your first clue will be, 'Why is there a fine oil mist on my right sleeve, leg.' At least, that is what I heard. or was it, thats what I felt....(2 years ago) revmaaatin. yeah, quit smirking, some of you have done the same thing....just glad I did a leak check on the drain plug, AND a spray check on the filler cap. Yep. It sprays.
