no it just that the hose is behind the distributor and near the throttle body so i dont want coolant to spray everywhere because its gonna hard to clean up. think im gonna have to drain the coolant.

possible noticeable coolant loss, (could over-heat) and if it does spill make sure you clean that area or its gonna reek when the engine gets hot
