    Air ride compressor air lines

    Solenoids I have one more question, looking at the way the solenoids are built I take it that they are either open or closed. Are they normally closed and it takes power to open them to put air in, if it is to low and let it out if it is to high? I am still trying to figure the system out in...

    Coolant recovery tank

    got it to stop I took the tank out and cleaned it up with a wire wheel and applied the bond to it and let it sit overnight and installed it the next day seems to be working good for now. I did get the number from the tank to see if I can find another one just in case it starts to leak again.

    Coolant recovery tank

    I used a molded plastic you form and put on the container. It had a hole in it when I purchased the car and it worked for a while but I guess the vibration and all it started leaking again. I went to harbor freight and looked at what you suggested and I think that might work better. I will take...

    Coolant recovery tank
