    My radiator finally puked and I thought I would install a condenser or overflow tank along with the new radiator. Can anyone explain how to hook up one of these, and how they work? I do have the factory Assembly illustration Manual showing the RPO installation but all it says is to hook a hose to the center outlet and the hook up a hose from the radiator overflow line to the other outlet. It says that the middle hose connection should not be able to draw air from it.

    All you need are 2 things.
    1 a radiator cap designed for use with a burp bottle. That is one with a rubber gasket on the cap that seals the top of the radiator neck.
    2 a hose running to near the bottom of some kind of container from the overflow tube on the rad.neck. I've seen 2 litre soda bottles duck taped to anything handy to fancy billet cans [barf]
