Ok, so you have the upper line going to the tank, and the lower line feeding the turbo right? Do you have a pic of the overflow?


BTW, that link showed that the stock overflow cap fits perfectly onto a gatorade bottle, thats awesome

POST #3 mike. Read post 1 and that shows the coolent bottle i have, then read post 3 and realise the solution is there. I had it hooked to the top port and nothing to the bottom, when i should have had it on the bottom port and nothing on the top. When the coolant expands and drops some in there, it starts to fill up the bottle, then when it cools down and sucks it back in, the bottle will empty back down into the radiator.

The line feeding the turbo is coming off of the smaller tube on the water pipe, the one that goes across the transmission and towards the firewall. Pic attached. look where the intake mani is and that should tell you where the feed is coming from and i circled in pink.

Yikes, what a mess of hoses haha

I get what you are saying now that you pointed out which posts you were talking about. I didn't realize you had the same catch can in the linked thread.

yeah sorry about that.
yes it is a mess, but it works. I really think its just a false reading from the sensor due to the turbo dump. ill just look for another port to link into. and see what happens.

Yeah, the line coming from the water neck needs to go to the bottom of the overflow tank, otherwise it will just drain onto the ground (as you've already found out).

I believe there where a lot of misconceptions with him about that car, and I was mostly around before he got the shell you bought the motor with.

The fuel cell was in a different 1ga shell, I know the person that owns it now and it still have the mounting bracket lines and an fitting if your interested. I believe its a ten gallon. The old sell was scarped at primo.
