Also, what will it take to reset the service engine soon light, can I just fix the hose replace the anti-freeze, and water, or do I have to take it to the dealer to do that, sorry I am not very wise on these situations.

someone told me there was a street car only race at chandler new year's day, but after the hose incident I don't know if I'll go, and besides this foot of snow we are getting doesn't help matters much. By the way, the best part about it just being a hose is that ford replaced it and the antifreeze for me, gave me a better clamp too. The dealer wasn't impressed when I said I'd do it myself though.

Looks like its time to go sledding. Luckily I took the rest of this week off, the drive from Newburgh to Toyota would stink. I had not heard of a New Years race but they do have a streetclass every few weeks. We have been going to test and tune $15.
