I had the same issue with my replacement tank. I just found a plastic reducer, so a short piece of house that is the larger diameter, to the reducer, than the smaller diameter hose to the expansion tank. |

Sorry it took so long for me to get back to you. I'm away from home for up to 6 weeks at a time and I have a lot of family time to catch up with.
Anyways all I did was use a brass hose reducer. If you google brass hose reducer you will see what I am talking about. Just need the size of the hoses you are using. _________________ '75 Porsche 911 |
