    So from there ( which is her Radiator cap yeah) a hose should go back to the yellow cap at the other end i can see in teh second last pic yeah? is that hose that is clipped into the top of teh reservoir that seems to go past then down, is that supposed to be going to that cap?

    Snicko is there a hose coming from the bottle with the Yellow cap to this bottle anywhere?

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    The hose that goes to the overflow from the reservoir is in another location. That little spout looking think is just an over flow from the cap if the pressure is exceeded. It could be possible the hose between reservoir and overflow has a problem.

    The small hose which is clipped to the side of the reservoir where does this go? It looks as though the little tail that comes out the filler neck which the hose goes onto has broken off.

    Snicko in that top pic is that hose coming out of the top of the bottle with the yellow lid or from beside it? if it come out the top of that bottle where does the other end go? That is the hose that is clipped along the length of the reservoir bottle and then disappears near your catch can. where does that go?
