Reply to "Are clamps needed on this oil line?"

“That said, I don't like to use push lock fittings at all, just my preference, but if/when requested the only time I would go clampless would be on a no pressure system (breather) or a low pressure system (carb fuel lines) and not a higher pressure system like oil or EFI. As mentioned above, a cheap clamp is simple insurance... or just uses wedged or thread in fittings and have peace of mind.”

I wholeheartedly agree with all of this. Thanks, Carey!
