Clamp for black plastic air intake host to air cleaner

[jboulukos]

Is there a clamp I can purchase to keep the black flexible plastic air intake hose from separating from the air cleaner.  Forgive me if the words used to describe the parts are incorrect.  Its the accordian-looking bendable hose that comes off the grille from the right of the radiator and ends in the light blue air cleaner housing.  

Name and size of clamp? Where to get one?

 

Thanks as always.

Worm gear steel clamps come in all sizes.  I have a worm gear clamp for a 36 inch diameter pipe in my "never to be really used" collection, so I am sure you know how to measure your circumference and divide by "Pi", 22/7 will do in an emergency.  Any Home Depot or equivilenent can sell you the right part.  Good luck, looks like a good start!

NAPA, oreillys, Autozone, etc all carry hose clamps. Take the black plastic air hose with you so they can give you the right size.

I got you.  Send me address in a pm and I'll send out the oval clamp for free.

You would be surprised what is still available at your friendly neighbourhood Nissan dealer.

That engine bay is worthy of the correct clamp. Dont use a hose clamp. Very nice looking!

It not my engine bay.  I agree with you though.

O, ok its not YOUR engine bay.  That engine bay is a WOW!  My engine bay looks like crap too :thumbup:.  I've never had a clamp for my accordion hose.  I'm happy with good MPG.  Maybe I'll get a shiny new clamp from Home Depot.  I like shiny things in my engine bay.
