Reply to "Cooling System Tank Modification"

I am working on 6915 for a customer who recently bought it.it was supposed to have restored,but far from it.One of its problems is as soon as it is started the swirl tank starts filling up the overflow tank.i finialy figured out the fill neck seat is warped and not sealing,i found a cap and with a little adjustment got it working ok. next problem,overflow tank is full of rust, you can see were this going.it has a stock radiator and cooling fans,wired reversed,new tubes and hoses .no air bleeds,also inlet tube to pump,on drivers side comes out of the lower part of rad. with the return from swirl tank to upper right side of rad.i installed a r/s t-stat, blead system,had to bypass heater core,tubes plugged . i drove it saturday about 10miles,waited at light to get on interstate about 3min .90mph for 5miles and back to shop stayed 200to210 all the way.this is in central fl.and 95degrees out.i have pitchures and will post soon ps. have to add A/c next week
