The reason why i went for a hose clamp is because its rare to find the original clamp to adjust the height. I would prefer one but the hose clamp works fine.

Why does it cost you so much up there. And where do you get your fuel from. Im thinking the same place as were you get your gas from. Russia. Thats very expensive for fuel.

It's around $1.33/ liter here. It was $1.39 a few weeks ago. Incl. 15% HST joint federal and prov. value added tax. Before that the cost is at least half tax.
