=== Did you change them with Toyota hoses or aftermarket?

In my humble opinion the original hoses could last longer than replacements unless you're going back with original equipment parts.

I have seen Toyota coolant hoses fail, but that was after swelling and obvious softness on my 1977 Toyota truck (hidden under the carburetor). Let's see, that was about 10 yrs. ago, and it's 30 yrs. old now, so it would have been around 20 yrs. then.

They say hoses can go bad from the inside, but with Toyota coolant and distilled water, I haven't seen any indication of this so far.

Kragen hoses or other non Toyota hoses completely different story. Plan on replacing them every couple of years.

The coolant hoses I changed, I replaced with Toyota parts (toyotadiscountparts.com).

Guess I'll add the two IAC hoses to my Wish List, and when I get $100 worth of parts, I'll place my order (to get the free shipping).

I was going to get a new EGR modulator for $45 or so, but the $11 part I got from the junkyard is holding up just fine, so far. (My wife's idea.) It's quite an experience, going to a junkyard for a part. Engines lying everywhere... piles of hubcaps... a differential cut open, so you could see the parts... the guy there had a bin full of EGR modulators. I chose the one with the cleanest filter element. Not every junkyard had Toyota parts - I had to call 5 different parts dealers until I found one that had Toyota parts.

What about the rest of the hoses?

Personally I wouldn't go with store-name specials in typical parts stores. However I would specify Gates at any parts store or just go to the local NAPA. Small diameter generic hoses are about $1 per foot at NAPA. Do specify that you want ATF, coolant, or fuel/EVAP, because they are different rubber formulations.

Toyota asked their techs to use only Gates timing belt when the 5SFE was having belt stretch problems and they didn't know what to do. That's a vote of confidence. They later went with the cheaper Dayco with a Toyota name on it, too bad.

have good prices on Gates belts and hoses (but the local NAPA is faster), so no need to settle for anything less.

Gates web site, "the world's most trusted name in belts, hose and hydraulics":

What other hoses?

I'd already changed the top/bottom rad hoses, and 3 hoses to the heater core.

Did that... got 7 ft. of Gates hose at NAPA.

Now comes the fun part... I can see where one hose goes to an area near the distributor, but the other gose goes from the IACV to... somewhere... between the intake manifold and the engine.

Any suggestions on how to get there, to change the hose?

I'd rather not remove the intake manifold, if I can help it...

Thanks,

Michael
