Answer me this please

I know this is the overflow relief hose, this is making me angry, but where the hell does it go?

To the ground. Route it somewhere it gets almost a straight shot to ground.

If it ever starts pissing fluid, replace your cap.

I cant tell by the pic, but i think that one looks like it might go to the top of the radiator? Its been a long time since ive owned a preface lift car. Definitely looks like the end of that hose was attached to an orifice. It is possible since its cracked, the p.o. switched ends.

That's what i was wondering as well. I was thinking the sharp angle looked like it was probably switched around.

It's been a while, my memory of E30 layout is getting hazy.

If you have this bottle, it goes to the radiator.



There is a smaller hose that is the overflow (you can see it by the coil).

I have the other one which goes to the radiator. Unclear by my picture i was referring to the one pointing away from it. Its the shorter one which apparently is supposed to be pointing to the ground

My car is an early model and doesn't even have the hose pointing to the ground. I mean I would say you probably don't even need it but since you already have it that's cool

Oh, that's the overflow hose I believe. My car's a late model and it leads basically along the fender walls and exits somewhere in the middle pointing to the ground. When it spills, the coolant will drip onto the front driver side wheel if that gives you a better picture.

Just get a 2.5ish piece of fuel line... I can show you where to feed it if you want next time we hang out :)
