Sam -

If the engine to radiator hoses are in need of replacement, then all the
others are probably in similar shape.  Since replacing all the hoses at
the same time can be cost prohibitive, you might consider bringing along a
few hand tools, a sharp knife and some duct tape...   The knife can be
used to cut off the end of a hose that's leaking at the clamp and the duct
tape takes care of those leaks where the knife would only make the
situation worse....<g>  Oh yeah, a water jug might help in these cases as
well...
