I can see how a catch can/bottle/bag would allow you to overfill the =
expansion tank. However, I don=E2=80=99t see how that would help keep =
the engine cooler. The expansion tank provides a place for the expanded =
coolant to expand into and then back into the cooling system when the =
coolant cools down. But that coolant in the expansion tank isn=E2=80=99t =
being used to cool the engine as it is not circulating into the system =
when the engine is running. I do agree that every Tiger should have an =
overflow to catch any coolant that is pushed out of the expansion tank =
because, as was mentioned, you do not want it going into the =
environment. Just my 2 cents.
