So I was putting a T-stat in my car tonight and had to wrestle around the S-hose a bit to get at the clamp bolt. My question is, how long would you leave the hoses? I have had them on the car 9 years and about 8000 miles.. They still feel soft but at what point do you say, "bzzzzz" time to replace them?
If so would you do regular hoses or spend the extra bit on the newer silicone hoses that are more durable?
