Title: Coolant tank fix (again) Post by spaljeni on Mar 22nd, 2012, 1:38pm Hi! I posted here about my fix to the coolant tank on a Scorpio 24V Cosworth. Here is the picture again: http://i732.photobucket.com/albums/ww330/spaljeni_lik/IMG_2226.jpg Well, it doesn't work. The car is losing liquid at a high rate. Seems like the liquid is getting superheated an forced through the overflow hose as there is always a puddle under the car where the expansion tank is positioned and there are no leaks elsewhere. Someone here offered to ship me an original 24V Cosworth expansion tank for "100 Kunas" :P and the topic got removed so I can't tell who exactly it was and I'd appreciate if the person would contact me. Thanks |

Title: Re: Coolant tank fix (again) Post by spaljeni on Mar 22nd, 2012, 3:57pm No, the Cosworth has 2 inlets (note how the hoses are connected into one before the expansion tank) Here's a picture of how it should be: http://i732.photobucket.com/albums/ww330/spaljeni_lik/bild-6-42744.jpg (sorry, couldn't find a bigger image on the internet) |

Title: Re: Coolant tank fix (again) Post by spaljeni on Mar 22nd, 2012, 4:54pm Yes, but their page is messed up, it doesn't display shipping options (or they don't ship to Croatia) :'( I'll try contacting them. (still cheaper than the 80 € I'd have to spend for one here) Thanks |

Title: Re: Coolant tank fix (again) Post by leewar on Mar 22nd, 2012, 6:56pm Just a mention that Highlander doesn't come on here as much as he used too so you may have to be pretty patient. Lee |

Title: Re: Coolant tank fix (again) Post by leewar on Mar 22nd, 2012, 7:06pm Spaljeni. In case Highlander takes a while, Go to Spikies and click on Header tanks, onto2.9L header tank, click on more info, add to checkout and it asks you to register your details including country and Croatia is there. Cheers Lee |

Title: Re: Coolant tank fix (again) Post by spaljeni on Mar 22nd, 2012, 7:31pm I sent Highlander an e-mail and he replied. I also sent an inquiry e-mail to Spikies (on the product page, "ask question about this product") Still waiting for a reply. I did register on the site and yes, Croatia is there when registering but when I try to checkout, i get to a page where it says "select one" (I guess shipping options) and there's nothing to select... |

Title: Re: Coolant tank fix (again) Post by leewar on Mar 26th, 2012, 10:57am Spaljeni, Hope Highlander sorted you out a header tank for you. Lee |

Title: Re: Coolant tank fix (again) Post by spaljeni on Apr 4th, 2012, 11:08pm Actually no answer from Highlander since the first time I contacted him. Also no answer from Spikies either. And to make things worse my mechanic messed up the car for good. I almost feel like the car is cursed or something :( |
