Has anyone had water or heater hoses burst? I had the heatercore hose spring a leak a few years ago. I was thinking about going through and replacing all the water hoses. Any comments would be great.

If you haven't done it in awhile, it's highly recommended. Seeing as how the heat-core hose leaked,
the rest are just waiting for that hot n sunny Hawaii-Nei day to surprise you ..

You should thoroughly go over all the hoses at least once every 3 years.

What ever you do make it look factory use the factory hose clamps remove any labels that are on the hoses. I have seen replaced hoses with the bar code label still on and ugly looking hose clamps.

checking on hoses
also a good way of checking your hoses is to feel them when u haven't started your car yet. if the hose feels hard and rough then its due for a replacement. You want the hoses to be soft when you press on them. hope this helps

I had one heater hose break right after I did my H swap, rather than that all of my hoses are original from the factory and still in great shape.
If it ain't broke...Comment
