Here are the details 1991 FJ80 230K miles.
Here's the problem, it leaks a couple of ounces of coolant when it goes from fully warmed up to fully cold when the outside temp is below 0 Fahrenheit. The leak is from the lower radiator hose.
Have any of you experienced this and if so what was the fix? The hose clamp is tight and I'm hesitant to crank on it more because plastic gets brittle in the cold and I really don't want to break the radiator. I could just keep adding a little coolant thoughout the winter, but I hate having a leak
