Just replace the hose, it happens when they get old..and the problem is too many stock parts in that engine bay..it looks way too cluttered!! oh wait, you live in Cali- guess you get to keep all those pretty EGR fittings!!

id say that hose would have to be in pretty good shape to hold that kinda of pressure.

well i actually think my stat was fine. the hose was really soft so maybe it just started giving way. 18 pounds of pressure for 10 years does that...
