Getting Discouraged with my MJ (radiator issues)

I fill them to the top and use the 2.5L overflow tanks.

I run mine about 1.25 inches (32mm) with a sealed overflow.  Coolant at that point is above all plumbing.

I see you or someone placed the ac coil under the hood.  Type a few words about that

No AC, coil is split loom unless your referring to something else.

Have been running mine that way for that many years too. So simple. Especially since the 2.5 expansion bottle bolts right in. The mounting holes are already there.

Sorry, I'm not on here as much as I used to be. I'm the mechanic working on his truck. Both of the welded aluminum rads hes had have leaked from the same area, from the fin solder joints at the top right. I assume this to be a quality control issue with the chinese parts. Beyond that, the Macs tank has been great, and we have this truck running great. Hopefully this newest one from a local supplier will be better, at least it will be easier to work a warranty return, though with new parts, we shouldnt have to worry about that. But we all know how crappy a lot of parts are nowadays, and it doesnt appear to be getting any better.
