While doing some major work on my car, I thought I would replace the overflow tank cap. The new one was really tight. So tight, it loosed the crimped metal top of my overflow tank. This is now bubbling and seeping when the car is hot and it's running 5 degrees hotter than it did before. This is a sneaky problem, and I don't see any practical, permanent way to fix it short of getting a new bottle (which I did, $60).

Maybe I should have left well enough alone!
