Re: coolant recovery question

THe hose from the bottom of the bottle hooks up to the nipple at the rad cap. The hose on the top of your bottle is for overflow. You need coolant in the bottle to make it a recovery system. You fill your rad to the top and when it warms up the coolant goes in the bottom of the tank. When your motor cools down the liquid is pulled back into the rad.
Some tanks have a cap on them with 2 hoses. One hose goes to the bottom and one is for overflow.
