I've been having problems with the Air Cleaner Box connecting to the Throttle Body coming loose.... I retighten the clamp but keeps coming loose

Most annoying as the air isn't going through the Air Filter and Cold Air Intake.

Anyone else experience the same problem?

Heavy equipment suppliers usually stock them on hand, as they are used primarily for turbocharger/inlet air system and radiator hose assemblies. But try the usual hardware stores, you may be lucky.
