Theres a metal tube the runs from the oil filter housing to something, i didn't look, maybe turbo??. Well the rubber hose the connects the hose in the bend keeps busting and making me slowly over heat and leak coolant. Does anyone have an idea as to what to replace it with, or some way to keep it from busting?? This is the 2nd time it has busted on me.
 
That metal hose runs behind the turbo, and all the way to your goose neck (thermostat housing). What you might be busting is the rubber that connects that line on either end. Replace it with some very sturdy and thick hose, and get a small pipe clamp on either end to keep it from rupturing, or leaking.
 
Well , first what kind of hose are you using , secon what exaust downpipe are you running?
The downpipe could be making the rubber get hot and melt and the hose may be not sturdy enough to take the coolant pressure. Try running small fuel hose if the regular coolant hose isnt working.
