so Do i leave the other side of the expansion cap as it is or connect pipe from it to feed back into the sytem? or blank it off?

if anyone can shed some light thatd be a massive help

Thanks

Ben

why didnt you use the vaux type coolant bottle ? i think you can just put a pipe on the out and point it to the floor ;) and i want pics of this mini lol

I went to my local scrappy and what i had seemed to fit on my wing perfectly, i was thinking is the connection just and overflow so i could do that but today steam and water was spitting from it so i thought maybe it needs to be a closed system! hmmmm

Pics as requsted :)
