What is the name of the hose connected to the wp left of the thermostat housing as you face the engine....mine is spraying coolant on the two sensors on the left of the throttle body and probably killing my opti and i don't know what to call that coolant hose to get it at autozone....plus how do you remove the fitting to the right of the bleeder screw to get it off? Thanks.

Check the exploded diagrams, either the Heater Hoses or the radiator hoses, etc. JMHO

according to the exploded diagrams it is a front heater outlet hose.....i still dont know how it hooks to the tube with the bleeder screw...it looks like its a crimped fitting...how do you remove/install this fitting?

A pair of plyers usually works or if you have some of those handy crimp removers, those help as well.

Not quite sure which hose you talking about, however, if you take a look at your heater INLET hose at the fire wall and at the crimp between that short piece of hose and the metal tube----if it is the same type of crimp, you will need to split the crimp (or saw it length-wise with a dremmel----just enough to penetrate the crimp and not the underlying tube, you can remove the crimp and when replacing rubber hose use a standard screw type clamp.

Those type of OEM clamps can be a biatch to remove. JMHO
