Therefore i hope im presuming right that the pipe from the rad neck goes to the header tank outlet on the neck so when the caqp lifts, the water goes back into the header tank, and the other one just breaths to air. Am i right or thick

Im trying to sort out where my header tank pipes go, so has anybody got any pics of their engine bay. i have the header tank that sits on the front passenger inner wing which has two outlets on the neck. one i presume goes to the radiator and the other is the overflow outlet . Which one goes where or does it not matter. I have an alloy rad in mine that only has an outlet on the neck of the cap.

The front one,which looks to be the biggest one,goes to the radiator and the smaller one is the overflow,this pipe usually goes into a hole on the inner wing.
