Has anyone else had an issue with keeping the filter coupling secured to the intake side of the head unit? I have put the thing back on a few times now. We even heated it up to make the plastic pliable when installing and then shrink as it cools. Clamp is tightened but still pops off occasionally. I just think trying to tighten a rigid piece of plastic with a worm clamp and with very, very little reveal is a bad design.

Any suggestions? Has anyone tried a different clamp with success?
