Header Tank

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

 

Just under the cap on my header tank on my 1.9 there seems to be a spare outlet where a small pipe should go, but there is no pipe there where should this pipe go? Is it just a run off pipe?

It's the vent, mine has a pipe which just runs down the side and to the bottom of the engine bay, that way an water it chucks out goes straight onto the floor.

If its the outlet I think your reffereing to its the overflow for the header tank. Youd dont necessarily need a pipe on there although I have added on on minewhcih runs down through the hole in the centre 'ledge' of the header tank and down the back of the engine bay. You can just about see it in this pic:
