Scott M Posted May 22, 2003 Report 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! Scott []v[] Quote
fixitrod Posted May 22, 2003 Report 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
Scott M Posted May 22, 2003 Author Report 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
