I have a sc400 and I need to make room in the engine bay, and I was planning to move the coolant expansion tank somewhere else and/or just replace it with a overflow tank.

I was wondering what I would do with the small tube that comes out of the thermostat housing (The coolant inlet).

I looked around and the only answers i see are plug up the small hose or alloy weld the hole. Im just unsure of which one would be a better option without having the car over heat.

If anyone can answer this, I would appreciate it!!

Happy New Years!!

 

moved to maintenance sub forum this is not a build thread.

 

Ok i found out that i can just plug it up but Im not sure what to do with the coolant level sensor,

I think i can unplug it but thatll just keep the coolant light on, is there anyway around this?

 

Yank the light from the back of the cluster lol
