    these plastic overflow tanks have been known to split
    in my VL before I got it, all the water leaked out of the plastic tank and the engine overheated so badly that a new exchange engine was needed

    mines broken on the side a bit, all the ones at the wreckers are the same...but i have been losing a little bit of coolant....not sure if i got a leak in the hose or if its coming out of the overflow, it's a fair amount im losing in 3-4days.

    There are dry coolant stains around the lid where it is running out, how do i stop thgis...there doesn't look like to be much of a seal in the lid.
