Idle Air Control Valve hoses

Whoops...somehow I missed replacing the two hoses that plug into the IACV, and was rewarded the other night by a vertical stream of coolant that must have been going 4 feet in the air (once I raised the hood). The leak was in the shorter one (towards the battery side), which wasn't too bad to get to. The other one, however, is a U-shaped affair that appears to need me to disconnect a bunch of vacuum lines and other stuff to gain access, and I can't really see exactly where it goes.

Anyone have experience with this hose?

When I replaced my IACV and my fast idle valve I had leakage out of the small coolant hoses on both. My solution was to replace the spring clamps with worm drive clamps - problem solved. If the hoses are in bad shape you will have to replace them, though.

long ass needle nose pliers. go at it from the throttle body side under the upper trans mount but yeah it a pita!
