300TE idle control valve hose craziness

Has anyone else had trouble keeping the idle control valve to manifold hose intact? I'm putting the third one on my TE this weekend, it split on a trip to Michigan a couple weeks ago.

The blasted things split down the mold seam and leak, causes all sorts of running issues, and the last one is less than two years old!
