Honda-Tech - Honda Forum Discussion - ok this is a good one..honda del sol radiator problem?

[I]my radiator cap was broken .. now. all the pressured coolan was goin into the coolan tank..now i bought a new cap for the radiator.. and guees what.. it just start blowing my coolan hoses...now.. when i had the old cap never happen .. and now that i have the new cap keeps the coolan on the engine under some pressure ,, now it's this normal.. that the radiator is under some pressure?... and guest what the hose that blow up. is the little one that goes from behind the engine and go into the manifold. i guess it goes into a sensor o something..now. i got to take the whole manifold out to be able to put the new litlle hose in.. so what is it??.. the radiator, the ecu, the water pump. or cause i just did the right thing putting a new cap on it and the hose is just starting to give up!! or what!!..
