Happened last night around midnight.
Luckily, I was close enough to an Advance that fabbing up a replacement hose was no big deal, and I was up and running in a half hour.
I have 62K miles on my car and I thought that all the hoses had been replaced, but evidently I was mistaken.
The hose that blew was a 1.5" diameter hose to the left and slightly fore and below the intake plenum. It has a twin that sits next to it. Left a 1.5" gash.
Having said that, should I be looking at replacing all of the hoses in the car? I'd be trying to do as many as I could myself.
I have downloaded a factory service manual, so it should be no biggie.
I was just very fortunate it happened where it did.
