antifreeze leak here then there? (1 Viewer)

Hi all I have been dealing with an antifreeze leak. It only leaks when I warm my truck up in the morning. At first it leaked from the radiator hoses. I tightened them then got a leak from my heater valve. took it apart cleaned it put it back together and no leak. Know I have a leak from my radiator hose again. I there something that could be creating to much pressure when warming up? Or do I just have some crappy clamps?
Thanks

Crappy clamps

Old brittle hoses, bad clamps like NG said, faulty radiator cap.

I have new hoses. So that is out. The clamps are the ones that screw to tighten. What would a faulty radiator cap do?

The cap is meant to ventilate at a certain PSI. Faulty one could over pressurize the coolant system. Sort of guess.

Just had this problem on really cold starts—turned out it was my radiator cap to venting properly—although coming to this conclusion was a pain in the ass
