Hey all----

Figure this one out---

I have been milking a coolant hose leak for 6 mos., it was one of the two that go along the firewall, down to the metal tubes that go forward to the radiator---I just loosened the cap on the expansion tank, and the loss was minimal.

The Van has always had a hesitation, when leaving from a stop, until I left the pressure cap loose--and it has ran just ducky-----

I replaced the hoses yesterday, and now the darn hesitation is back-----this just can't be----no rhyme, nor reason.

Mind you, every electrical control component has been replaced within the last two years, and now that it doesn't have any post nasal drip--it runs like Ca-Ca--off the line--the juice pedal, has to be stuffed to the floor, before the van takes off with any sort of semblance of speed---and even then it's a bow-wow---

The oxy sensor light was blinking prior to me repairing the hoses--now it doesn't.--this alone doesn't sound right----

I give---any idea's?
