Coolant Overflow Tank

Just a shout out to Frank for a great product.
The coolant tank works absolutely perfectly!
First picture shows the tank hot, the other cold.

That is a good fit! Next time I buy a battery for my truck I'm going to get one like yours. That's a great setup!

I went to a box store parts place to buy a new battery.
The guy working the counter asked me if I was interested in a new battery for $10 bucks. Of course!

He told me the situation but I don't remember the details of why they were selling it for $10.00 but it didn't matter.
Anyway, I asked if he had any more. Sure enough he had another on just like it.
So, needless to say, I bought it too for $10.00, put it on my tractor

I know it's a marine cranking battery but it worked out great for attaching the main feed wire and the wire for my amp.

Thanks for the info. $10 is a steal! I have one like that for the camping battery in my motorhome, but that's a deep drain one like a marine battery. I'll have to check on the cold cranking amps.
