Maybe i should make one of these instead of the ugly plastic bottle in the car

Thanks for explaining all this. I just realised i didnt know the difference, but its really quite obvious.

 

Haha, glad to see you have made your way up here. I told you I can be found here. I'm glad to see that you have joined. Welcome to the Rx7club!

 

quick question, since there appears to be people knowledgeable on cooling systems.

i have an s4 tii, well the waterpump housing and fill neck anyway, and an s4 koyo radiator, both of which have caps and bleed/vent nipples. the way i had it connected was both of them teed together and then went into the overflow tank.

is that ok or proper, or is there a better way of doing it?

i was thinking of running a higher pressure cap on the radiator (lower) so that it forces the fill neck (upper) to open first.

but im no expert, hence im here asking for advice.

thanks!

 

what i have done in the past is install a cap same pressure and just plug the outlet/bleed with a pipe plug on which ever one is lower in the system.

 

That's totally wrong. If you were running an expansion tank you could do that but for a recovery tank you need it to be feed only AFTER the pressure cap.

 

Here is a pic of one I just picked up from Livermoreperformance.com

It is a canton tank.

Here's a cheaper option. It even has threaded mounting holes built into the can.
