That's why, for small purchases, I prefer ordering online and then just going there to pick up the order. It's pretty straight forward.

Did you have to bleed the coolant after installing new hose?

Most of the time that hose leaks because the spring clamp is in the wrong location. That hose has leaked on me twice, I replaced it and it leaked again, I just moved the hose clamp elsewhere on the hose to try to get a good seal and good as new. Be careful, coolant is not good for the alternator.
