Coolant Reservoir: Description and Operation
COOLANT RECOVERY PRESSURE CONTAINER
DESCRIPTION
The coolant bottle consists of a pressure chamber and a overflow chamberthat is mounted in the engine compartment. The overflow hose connects the
pressure chamber to the overflow chamber.
NOTE: Coolant will normally be in the pressure chamber side of the coolant bottle. The overflow chamber should normally be empty
OPERATION
The pressure chamber keeps the coolant free of trapped air, provides a volume for expansion and contraction, and provides a convenient and safe
method for checking and adjusting coolant level at atmospheric pressure. It also provides some reserve coolant to cover minor leaks, evaporation or
boiling losses. The overflow chamber allows coolant recovery in case of an overheat.
