   More antifreeze problems.

   No sooner do I post about my "bypass" work to fix the leaking auxiliary pump   
   on the Durango, and my wife calls me on the way home about another anti-freeze   
   related problem.   
      
   My bypass worked fine, but now the heater hose has about a 1" gash in it.  It   
   happened about 2 inches from my bypass, right on a part of the hose that   
   bends/curves.     
      
   This goes back to my theory that sometimes it is just better to replace   
   everything in the area when working on something if you even suspect future   
   problems.   
      
   For the time being, I might do another "bypass", but this weekend plan to   
   replace the entire heater hose (which is a "Y" style, since it goes to two   
   heater cores) and install the new auxiliary coolant pump.
