    I bought a new battery and in the midst of swapping batteries I realized one of the reservoir hoses from the top of the plastic lid was just hanging and not connected to anything. Wondering if someone could upload a picture or explain where the hoses are meant to go.

    Did a search and looked on the net but no luck so any help would be great!!

    Do a search on 304 engine bays and go to pics, an see what comes up. Jst use google or somthin.

    But, there should only be 2 hoses if we're thinkin of the same thing. the 2 that come off the over flow lid. One is just a drain if the bottle overflows, and the other is from the radiator neck and it should go to the side of the lid that is attached to the tube that goes down into the bottle....if that makes sensce
