I use a radiator cap with the
pressure mechanism removed. The overflow hose goes to the bottom of a
stock
RX-2 make up bottle. This bottle has the pressure cap on it. This is a
Stant
lever cap 16 pound. The bottle acts as an accumulator (air spring) to
maintain a constant pressure without dumping coolant. The bottle is only
1/4
full of coolant. It works like a charm. It is the stock layout of the
RX-2/3.

Makes sense, Lynn, and accounts for the change in characteristics. I must
admit that I am slow in understanding your system. Does the first filler cap
near the pump have any pressure relief? What is a "stant lever" cap?
Pressure relief?
Can you tell me one more time why this arrangement is an improvement over
the single over flow bottle arrangement? Sorry for being a dunce on this.
