Expansion tank fatigue

[dan_b]

Found out the hose returning hot vapour from the top of the rad to the expansion tank has suffered from plastic fatigue and sheared off, whoops.

So, a new 3B expansion tank for me - any other parts I should consider ordering/ replacing while I do it?

It looks like a straightforward job, any BTDT advice?

On this topic does anyone know roughly how much an aby one is, mine is looking a little brittle aswell

dont think so Dan as the sensor from the old should just plug into the new one. If u run the pink coolant G12 in the new one it wont turn brown so quick either

SOunds like your car is back on top form!

The mighty 3B is making a glorious return to form after a period of decline

I think this deserves a pic of the temp repair to the tank
