the damn new heater hose i bought got a freakin leak in it... about the size of a pin hole...its enough to loose coolant in under 20 min of driving and have the damn buzzer bug the crap out of u while sitting in traffic going bonkers... I just bought it about 3 months ago and the damn thing got a hole in it... it ain't cheap either from mazda ~$34 for a hose!!!!

can i just block the outlet and nothave a heater right now...do any of ya'll have problems with the stock hose going out real early... i couldn't get a hose from anywhere else (just mazda) cause they don't have any that bend like that!!

 

i know the hose burst due too oil getting on that but that not it ...it just went out !!!

make sure the copper tube you slide it onto doesn't have any sharp edges or such. when you replace the hose, to prevent oil from getting on it buy a thermo sleeve. www.bakerprecision.com
