Yes, that's right. What would have happened if that clamp had been just a bit looser and the hose had inconveniently popped right off in Alberta's famous "middle of nowhere" -- for example, half way up some steep mountain hill located half way between Jasper and Lake Louise on the famous Icefields Parkway -- a trip we'd like to take this summer in our fabulous Z?
Considering the reality of what has just happened, I'm now seriously considering whether I should proactively / pre-emptively replace all of the coolant system's OEM spring clamps-- especially the larger ones --- to prevent this possibility. This would not be an expensive or difficult operation and it would completely eliminate both the nagging thought of such a possibility or the any inhibition to "floor it".
Am I being too paranoid?
