Clamps
I am trying to figure out which clamps go on the short hose from the overflow tank to the tee. The AM shows the spring style at the tee but does not show which style at the tank nipple. Long Island sells the band style for both but that conflicts with the AM. Could use a little help.

A corbin clamp is found on a lot of lawn mowers. It is the flat band clamp that can be installed with a pair of pliers by holding the three tabs together while you slip it over the hose and then when you release the tabs one side has two and the other side has a single in the center of the two.

You might want to recheck the AIM
the clamps for the short hose are screw clamp-style, just like LICS sells.
Check AIM UPC 11-13, sheet A5.
I try to remember to install this shorty hose on the tank BEFORE putting the tank in.
And Corbin clamps are the spring WIRE style, as used on your heater hoses.
