My friends suburban has a very tough time going up very steep hills and we think that it could be the coolent hose. The car almost stalls and it has the check engine light and it goes full fledge out.

is there any way to check it profesionally for really cheep?

Check engine light:

Have the computer scanned for code/s-you have a problem within the engine management system that caused the CEL to turn on-This is your starting point of diagnosis, finding out what's going on.
