Radiator coolant overflow

All,

Does the 96TL has two hoses coneected to the resevoir tank? One for overlow when hot and one for resevoir going back to the radiator when the cool?

I was reading the Legend forum and it was mentioned that there are two hoses?

Thanks.

Yes, also on mine too. How does coolant get back to the radiator?

When radiator cools, external ambient air pressure becomes greater than internal radiator pressure and coolant is pulled or pushed (depending on POV) back into the radiator.

I answered in your other thread. Chemical test to confirm head gasket problem. If negative test, then a new thermostat and radiator cap.

good luck
