A lower hose that is cracked, swollen or leaking at a connection can mean it is due for replacement; look it over with the engine off and cool. Coolant loss or overheating alone does not prove this hose is the problem, since a faulty thermostat can cause overheating too. This listing is one lower hose, and each of these engines takes one.
