Two issues this morning: I have noticed that 5-10 minutes or so after driving I hear, what sounds like a burp in the cooling system. I checked this morning after a drive & a burp, and I noticed a thi

Does your radiator cap have a vacuum relief valve ? If it's missing (ISTR some caps didn't have them) or stuck, you may be hearing air sucked in through the water pump seal by the contraction of the

Hi John, The TR4 coolant overflow bottle you bought is simply an overflow catch tank. That's all that were ever fitted to TR4s. You can mount it just about anywhere because the coolant won't be sucke

Alan, I rather disagree with your implications, not necessary your statements, but ... While it's certainly possible to have a simple "overflow" bottle as you've described the TR4 having (wasn't thi

I added a TR4A recovery bottle to my no-neck TR4 radiator and it certainly sucks -- I mean it works and draws the overflow back into the radiator as things cool down. The bottle is mounted very low.

Hi Alan, Can't TR4s easily be made to draw radiator coolant back to the radiator from the catch tank when engine cools off - rather than the bottle simply being used as an overflow catcher? I bought

I installed an aftermarket recovery tank (not a 4a tank, although I am sure that would look better) on my 3a. It took some doing to get it to work, but I am pretty sure it is working now. The "secret

blush.. maybe I spoke too soon about TR4 rad caps? ran out and checked; I have two NOS UNIPART radiator caps (I believe for TR4) UNIPART GRC 112 (sealed in package) and UNIPART GRC 102 (loose) and a

Generally there is a metal disc in the center of the rubber stopper that pulls downward under vacuum to allow fluid back into the radiator. Randall

Proving once again that the simplest solution is often the most elegant. Thanks Randall, I am going to go check the radiator cap now. Bob back but it closed pulls

Hi Bob The Rad cap is also described as a PVRV, or pressure vacuum release valve, you have the big rubber seal that makes to the bottom of the filler neck, this deals with the pressure relief and in

A little quick web searching turns up that P/N for TR250 and early TR6. I believe you'll find it has a shorter "reach" than required for the TR2-early TR4 radiator. As a result it won't hold pressur
