Were the original clamps twisted into junk because the paint was not removed from the threads the first time the filter was changed?

Yep , that's why the orig. tech said he didn't use them. It was a costly mistake

You'll need to install the stainless steel pipe, you'll find the issue will go away.

Carriers had problems on the vibration of that line checkout a few of the service Bulletins, look at a new XR and see how they changed its lenght from the oil cooler, anyway I have cut the line as soon as it passes the the trns ducer and right before the tee going to the bearings and had a compatible 134A hose made that I could put a loop in it. I,ve done this on a few machines with the high vibration on that line and they have been on for serveral years with no problem. Hope this helps you out
