Scott M Posted May 22, 2003 Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 I removed the overflow bottle, filled radiator to brim and noticed on last ride some fluid draining from radiator - never overheated, never got over 185F, it was in 70F's outside and I have a New impeller and a in-line cooler. But it did spurt out 4-5oz 2 or 3 times. It is the original cap from '91, Should I look into a new cap? OR should I reinstall the bottle under front fender as seen here on sheeHQ/john's site? Or probbably should do both... What, where and how much is a good cap? or should I do nothing? TIA for any info. Read on and Ride hard!

fixitrod Posted May 22, 2003 Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 My guess is if it started to come out just from starting it and having normal pressure you need a new cap. If it didn't happen until the coolant got hot, you probably just over filled it. That's why there's a coolant bottle on it in the first place. You probably could just leave it like it is if the coolant doesn't look really low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott M Posted May 22, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 it didn't happen until the coolant got hot, I was hill jumping and started practicing drag starts when it happened. The Search Function works now (it wasnt b4) and I found 1 post, I probbably just overfilled it. Thx 4 replies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
