Coolant Reservoir

[larryd]

Did you install a new radiator cap when you replace the bottle???

Maybe the cap opening pressure is bad??? (just a suggestion)

Another replacement bottle cracked..., lasted just one year...

Thinking of making an aluminum or stainless-steel tank...

Cool...

Aluminum or stainless...?

Aluminum.

Question - when I replace the coolant tank, is it a good idea to replace hoses as well as clamps? How about the cap? Thanks!

Plan on the cap too.

There was a post here that a bad cap contributed to the problem for at least one owner. My tank on my 08 is still kicking... but due to that I carry a spare tank and cap... and the rub there is the tank is the old design before they updated it.
