So my Jeep as been in the garage for the past week while I have been cutting out & patching rush holes in the floor pan. Tonight when I went to close the hood I noticed the lower radiator hose was vacuumed sucked flat. I opened the cap and it released some of the vacuum. I have never see this or even knew a hose could do this, anyone have an idea????:dunno: I dont

It's because the coolant has contracted from the cold weather. Since you introduced air into the system now I would run it and top it off.
