RE: Coolant recovery tank

[Brian Honnold <bhonnold@pac-cap.com>]

Those coolant reserviour caps will go bad and let water vapor (steam) 
escape so you'll lose some coolant.  When they really go bad they won't 
hold pressure and you will actually lose liquid.  I usually grab a couple 
every year at the local u-pull-it and carry a spare in my McGiver kit.
