The Mystery of the Disappearing Coolant

[rjmorel]

I got tired of removing the plastic covers when I put in coolant so I put this funnel extension gizmo together. Now to add coolant ,I just reach in and pop the top of the overflow bottle hose off the radiator end with some pliers to remove the hose clamp and put the white end of the funnel extension into the overflow hose and add coolant. Don't have to take any thing off that way or remove the overflow bottle cap.
Spud my RX3 has 4500 miles on it and the coolant has gone down a little when out on long rides. I carry a bottle of coolant with me but now I am confident its not needed as the coolant takes a lot of miles before it gets very far down in the overflow bottle. I'll try it out this coming week at the Sound Rider Rally in the Gorge .rj
