Default So I have coolant leaking from........

Where the two heater core hoses connect to the firewall in the engine bay? And I mean leaking like an open water faucet.... As of right now, no clleant in the car (drivers/passenger floor) how does this happen? Do I need new hoses? Are there new connections?? looking for tips and advice. Thank you in advance!

Is it leaking from the hose or the coupler...

Either way if its the hose youll want to replace the coupler also cause it almost always breaks when you go to remove the old hoses..
Both hoses and the coupler should run you about $50..

You could try just replacing the o-rings if its the coupler thats leaking but like I said once you go to release the lines you almost always break the coupler.
