I've had three of these over the last 40 years. Never had a fuel leak in any of them including this one until I did a complete removal of the fuel rail and replaced all the hoses and clamps.
I'm going to go out today and grab about 20 of the 11-13 clamps and replace them all.
It did occur to me that maybe I need a metric size hose but it just doesn't seem logical. In fact, I'm sure that I will have to cut them off if I decide to replace them. They're very tight. However, you never can tell about these things. They'll surprise you sometimes.
By the way, one more strange thing about it is that the leaks always occur on the first startup after it's been sitting for at least a few days. I have never, ever had one of these leaks occur when I'm out and about in it once I've tightened that clamp screw on the initial startup.
Once I have parked it for the day and restart it maybe a week or two later, there is about a 20% chance that one of them will be leaking.
