Speaking from experience I would suggest getting rid of the hose end you put in there and just using a heater hose nipple like the older stuff had in it. I do this for a living and we have never had those stupid clip on hose couplers not leak after a short time. I replaced both of them on my Tahoe a couple of times after we put a fresh engine in it and they kept failing. I just put the regular hose nipple in and cut the end off the hose, slid the hose on the nipple and a year later no failures.
