F'n Hose

Okay -- within one month of me owning my two RX7's the heater core to block hose blew... on both of them in the same place... wtf? When the Hose went it was NOT under harsh driving conditions.. oh yeah the hose was not in bad condition either... Well it is now.. but...

Is this common? How many more should i buy in advance -- I have to go to the damn dealershit to get one...and they arent cheap...

-Sam (just complaining.)

Yeah, mine let go during a smokey burnout about a month ago, so I guess I deserved it. It was still a pretty big pain in the *** trying to get the new one on though.

they give out all the time. whenever you change the oil filter or if you have a leak there, oil will drip down onto the hose and slowly ruin it.
