    Early model M20 coolant reservoir overflow hose question

    Does anyone know where the coolant overflow hose drains to? Can someone please take a picture for me for where the other end of this hose drains to (not my car)?



    Thanks in advance!

    Mine just goes into a hole in the frame below the tank.

      I have mine draped on the inside of the frame rail. Estoguy, it doesn't sound like a good deal to have it drain into the frame unless I'm misunderstanding you.

        I routed mine through the rubber grommet where the brake hard line and abs wiring go into the right wheel well so any overflow dumps into the wheel well. Seems like a much better idea than introducing liquid into the frame rail.

          Thanks for the replies, I gave up my search and routed my extra long hose through the hole in front of the windshield washer tank where the AC dryer used to sit
