Looking for some advice:
I bought a cooling expansion tank from Hall. The 2 nipples are ~1/4 inch, rather than 5/8. Besides the hassle of interfacing to the 5/8 pressure bottle with one port, it seems to me that this is too small for the top/expansion port. If you overheat, 1/4 inch seems way to small to divert the exploding water out the top to the line, whose point is to carry all the water behind the rear wheel. And is 1/4 enough for the flow between the tanks???
Does anyone have a SS tank from another vendor? did they all switch to 1/4 inch? Is 1/4 inch ok?
(the tank is also taller and somewhat smaller diameter arggghhh)
thanks
