When your radiator cools down, it creates a vacuum. Provided the cap is on theradiator! This vacuum will suck back any fluid in the overflow tank, if the dip pipe is at the bottom of the tank.

I was an old man when Jim Croce hit the pop scene with Leroy Brown. Do you know who Les Brown was?

Are you guys too young to remember the Jeepsters. They had a 225 GM engine in them, and with a 350 automatic tranny would crawl through just about anything. I had one for several years while livingin Galveston and often took my Huskie dog out for a run on the beach.
