Coolant Recovery Tank Installation
 
When you put in a new coolant recovery tank, knock off about 1/2" of rubber hose on the smaller 3/8" hoses. Overtime the ends get brittle and will simply piss coolant all over the place once they are reattached. This happened on my 01 D2. Don't forget to open the bleed screw and hold up the tank 6-8" above the engine so new coolant will take care of any air bubbles. Once coolant pours out of the bleed, simply re-attach the screw and install the new tank. And of course wear safety goggles and gloves. It was a fun little project. Along with the new tank, might as well get a new cap with it.

Having fun on Vancouver Island!
