That was my fear with hose clamps, but he got it on the first try. The hoses have impressions in them from the old pex crimps, I’m sure this doesn’t help. Make sure you buy good SS hose clamps. A lot...

My 2019 Redhawk did not work when I picked it up new! They fixed them, I couldn’t tell you what the issue was. I think the plausible cause could be like J.B. Had, or something is not connected!
