Wow my coolant system is screwed up.

Steve: My friend believes probability one is correct he is coming over to see.

He wants to know where are all of the bleed off points?


Gilly: Thanks I see the problems now. No it is not an MB cap it is however a 1.4 bar cap made by Germany? I got it off of european automotive.

There is no hose that goes to an expansion tank from the pressure tank.

It was cut and then the hose dangles down to about 8 inches short of the ground out of the port below the pressure tank cap It looks like it was spliced. Then I looked harder and noticed that the other half of the tube goes over by the firewall on the pass side by the strut tower and then dissapears. Why do you think some one would do that? something wrong with the expansion tank, or the most probable cause the last owner was even stupider (more stupid) than I am. What would you recomend to splice it back together properly.

Quantity: A gallon and a half of 50/50 coolant mix. But then I lost probally a quart or so of coolant as of now. I will have the whole system drained .

I just ordered a new hose from the pressure tank to the expansion tank.
I am assuming The wheel needs to come off and then there will be a panel in the wheel well. Or do I access it from the top?





Thank you so much gentleman.
