I don't know if these would be suitable for coolant or fuel lines, but these came stock on the fuel lines on my 93 13 BREW. Personally, I'm going with aeroquip lines and fittings. I use these on the fuel ines on my motorcycle, though.

This if from the Mcmaster Carr catalog

Wide-Band Self-Tightening Spring Hose and Tube Clamps
     The coverage of a wide band reduces leaks while spring action automatically compensates for hose and tube expansion and contraction. Clamps are reusable.
     Made of carbon steel with a black zinc-rich plating that has five times the corrosion resistance of standard zinc plating. To install, use wide band pliers (sold separately) to open clamp ends. Next, slide clamp onto hose and over the installed hose fitting. Finally, release pliers to secure clamp to hose. Temperature range is -100° to +400° F. Meet SAE J1508.
     Note: When choosing a clamp, measure the outside diameter of your hose with the fitting installed.  For  Band  Band  Pkg.
