i have the coolant can as well, nice WR makes a quality product. Let me ask you something, do you have the coolant line going into the top port? I can't tell by your picture. If so then your car isn't going to be able to get the coolant back when it needs it. There is that plug on the very bottom of can that you can put a threaded barb from Lowe's or Home Depot in, that way you are using teh coolant can as a decoration and it is functional. i did however plug the top port since the overflow line will allow for venting as well.SergMSP said:get the billet coolant can from pg...
got a tip from pirana (i think) to put smaller hose inside hose on top so it can suck coolant back in...engine hasnt overheated and i see spillage from other lose hose when it overflows...should be working right....right? heheVelocifero said:i have the coolant can as well, nice WR makes a quality product.

yeah i thought about making a straw method like that, then just decided to use gravity to help the vacuum, either way they both function fine and look good!SergMSP said:got a tip from pirana (i think) to put smaller hose inside hose on top so it can suck coolant back in...engine hasnt overheated and i see spillage from other lose hose when it overflows...should be working right....right? hehe

thanks man, there is a small transparent tube which is at same level at the amount in the can, pretty accurate to me...$50 @ protegegarage..had a few fitment issues to where i wanted to put it, but we bent aluminum bracket at a measured angle and it fits awesome...jmv said:that looks really nice, is there any way to check your coolant level with that?? That would be my main concern doing something like that. You mind me asking how much??
I ended up buying a $1 l bracket from Lowe's so I could sit it right in the same location as it was with CAI in place, it is sitting in there sturdy too, I can hardly even vibrate it.SergMSP said:thanks man, there is a small transparent tube which is at same level at the amount in the can, pretty accurate to me...$50 @ protegegarage..had a few fitment issues to where i wanted to put it, but we bent aluminum bracket at a measured angle and it fits awesome...
