Well the "screw clamp" looks ghetto. So, I'll stick with the OEM lookalike clamps.

I purchased the 5/16 clamp and they are way too small for the hose.

The correct size is 1/2". The merchant is sending me the correct size clamp at no charge.

Reason is, 5/16 is the inside diameter of the fuel injection hose. The outside diameter is 1/2". So, I should have measured the outside diameter instead of going by the 5/16 that was printed on the hose.
