1991 Infiniti Q45 Coolant hose under the intake manifold

HEY LADY, I RECENTLY HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND WAS QUOTED THAT SAME PRICE AND HIGHER, ONLY THING I CAN TELL U IS TO FIND ANOTHER REPUTABLE MECHANIC THAT WONT CHARGE U AN ARM AND A LEG(I ENDED UP FINDING ONE HERE IN THE NORTHERN BAY AREA THAT CHARGED ME $250 FOR THE LABOR, I BROUGHT MY OWN PART AND HAVENT HAD ANY PROBLEMS) ALSO IT IS TRUE ABOUT THE LABOR THAT HOSE IS LOCATED WAY DOWN THERE, SO GOOD LUCK!
