First daft question

[fracster]

1999 GR 2.8.

What is the lower plastic tank for under the radiator expansion tank, right hand side as you look at the engine bay?

Is it a secondary tank or is it for something else. It is the one with a yellow screw top if that makes the question easier.

Thanks.

Secondary tank that never seems to get any higher than minium or lower

Yeh I only noticed that in mine last week... It was bone dry so I filled it up. By the end of the day it was near empty... weird

The top one is the pressure/fluid reservoir, and the one in front/underneath of that is the overflow itself ... if we're talking of a 3.0ltr. That's the one you top up ... the pressure cap is on the main fluid reservoir, and only overflows into the little one if the heat/pressure builds up beyond 13-16lb (I think .. from memory).

Others with a 3ltr will be able to offer more information no doubt.

On the money Scotty, not sure about pressures but.

Cheers guys. Thought it was, but needed some confirmation from more experienced people.
