The hose of death thread

Thanks for the info tim!
Good mechanic of mine replaced the HoD with that bulk Gates hose and generic bulk hose clamps; VCG and a Coolant Flush was also done in addition to some cooling hoses too :) Only issue I had was a brief RPM Signal on the way back from his shop but I'll double check the codes later today; still running lean and that RPM Signal is a new one.

I have a 1991 Toyota Previa. Is there a hose of death or other "disaster looming" issue on a Previa like this Hose of Death?

I've read this thread because it was very interesting and I like seeing the clever ways Tim and others have tackled an issue but now I'm worried I'm missing something on my Previa.

This forum has helped me so much. I wish I would have found it a lot sooner.

Thanks,

Sam

1992 Previa owner here. I don't think there's anything on the Previa with such catastrophic failure potential that's as hidden away from examination and replacement as the HOD is on the Vans.

Thanks Man_btc... I appreciate your reply and now won't worry so much. I also just read a thread about checking valve clearances and my need to do that since I have never checked them and have 400K on the car. It still has good power so i don't think I have a problem but I'm going to check.

Thanks again.

Sam
