    I got these clamps because as you said conventional clamps don't really work as good as I want. https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-5-16-FU...72.m2749.l2649 I still haven't attempted this repair. I should just go and do it but worried I wont be able to just slide the hose in through the abyss.

    That was not painful at all! I spliced both together just in case I wouldn't be able to fish it through. Went from the top down and went right through. Took much longer to remove the cover and wheel than to replace the line. The new clamps have a lot of extended threads to angle away than the regular clamps. Even tho the new clamps are much better than the regular screw clamps. What ever successful mission. Without splicing the hoses I think it would have been more of a fishing expedition and been more of a challenge. My lawn suffers from the historical leakage of multiple times.
