So now it just drips on the ground while you are driving! That is pretty cool!

Do all Mustangs come like that? With it just leaking out all over the damn place? Or what the fuck did you do to your car?

true, hopefully you don't over heat and have it hiccup everywhere.

no not all mustangs come like that.

my tank is different.

i don't think the stock tank comes with a "purge valve" so to speak.

I would rather run a line than buy a new cap every time the coolant gets hot.

Did you build that box yourself? it looks like some good welding. I would have just made another box and ran the line into that with a return line and a trap on it so you're not just dumping coolant all the time.

How often do you have to refill that coolant?

I didn't build it myself.

it's a canton tank.
I got it cheap on a group buy.
it hold a little more fluid than stock.. i haven't had to add fluid yet.
I have had the box for like a year now.
