What that doesn't solve though is....

The most common hose rupture going back to the 16V 900 is that enlarged 90° bend where the hose is attached to cylinder head.
Luckily, the 9-5 has not been as plagued as the 900/9000/9-3 models but maybe it is because many have replaced the hose package with the euro style one eliminating the problem. Or that the bypass valve thingy has lowered the pressure on the bend.
That was another reason it was so sweet with that Mackay hose.
Too bad they stopped importing them.
