Hi lads

 

I've ordered a plazmaman coolant tank and the aeroflow thermostat housing and as the OEM tank doesn't have the second bleed valve, will there be an issue connecting the second hose from the tank to the thermo housing??

Also what does that second hose do?? as I've seen some falcons with two and some (like mine) with only one.

See pictures if you're just as confused as me.

 

Cheers

B series have 2
Fg has one.
Leave it out if you can, it's just a bleed line but it continuously allows hot coolant to bypass the radiator.

1/8 NPT

 

that's overflow. Just pipe it down into the engine bay. Or block it.

arronm so that over flow pipe doesn't actually plug into anything then? As the name goes if the coolant overflows it will drain out of that pipe through the engine bay onto the ground??
