I couldnt find anything in the archives but was just curious...
my friend bought a '93 rx and we cant seem to find the ast... the car came with a new radiator, the car seems to run just fine... i dont know where else it could be??
if someone knows anything on this let me know, thanks for your time

some eliminate it...because it cracks.

All you need a FC filler neck and cap the bottom radiator nipple and the nipple of the filler neck housing.

 

Run a search for "ast elim*" There is a kit that makes it easy.

preciate it i'll see what i cant find

 

why wouldnt you be able to use the fd filler neck?

 

The FC fill neck has the nipple for the overflow tank.

I've been running my car since I got it with the AST eliminated - no cooling problems, nothing. But, I do like having an AST and have one comin' - they're a good idea. But, eliminating it is VERY inexpensive (I had the FC fill pedastal around the garage) and it does work.
