Hi, just bought a new radiator and the old radiator hose don't fit into the new radiator. It is about a phew millimeters smaller where the hose fits in the new radiator i bought and it is leaking coolant/water. Is there another way where i can make the hose smaller in diameter ? thanks

as above your hose clamp should be able to tighten around the hose and prevent any leakage
