Title: Overflow bottle on truck
Post by: Clay Pitkin on March 29, 2010, 09:18:51 AM
My overflow bottle for my radiator is mounted deep in the engine compartment next to the radiator. Its a pain to get to check, and to fill.

My question is can I mount the over flow bottle some place else? Does it have to be down low or can it be say up on top of the fender well?

I do know if i did move it, i would have to lengthen the hose and find someway of re-mounting it, I am just wondering about the antifreeze circulating?

TIA
Clay

Clay, If you have the correct Radiator cap you can put the expansion tank anywhere you wish. I have seen them mounted in the trunk and it worked fine.
