    Cooling system?

    Do the V8's have a water recovery system,ie an over flow bottle.This is for our HZ panel van.I ask this becouse water is being forced out the the hose by the radiator cap

    Cheers Kiwivan

    as far as I know there was recovery bottle, just flows out the hose and onto the ground. Don't fill them up too much.

    Both my HZ & WB used to have a bottle fitted.
    Obviously aftermarket, but they sat virtually next to the battery.
    I'll see if i can find a pic somewhere.

    wb had them moulded as part of the washer bottle. I dont think the earlier series had them.

    For some reason my WB had a different one to the standard one.
