Question Coolant hose problems...weird

Hey guys,

I've been having a reoccuring problem with my upper and now lower coolant hoses popping off.

Anyone else experience this? I am putting 2 hose clamps on each hose now to see if that will fix it.

I have a brand new 18lb radiator cap...which seems to be the right psi according to both Autozone and crap-boys.

Any thoughts??

Default

If the hoses are original, try replacing them, they may be worn out and not holding the pressure like they used to. Does it over heat?
