Evening lads, just wondering where anyone has relocated they're overflow bottle after FMIC install? I have read on a few threads to use a smaller bottle i.e a brake fluid bottle or a power steering bottle from the likes of a 106 or something. I would prefer to keep my OEM overflow bottle on my blobeye.

Cheers bob

 

No where to put the OEM bottle really. there are some proper after market ones sold though..
There are one or two FMIC's (I think the early hybrid ones are an example) that ran the intercooler pipe under the manifold and up avoiding the overflow bottle. but they are not ideal as the interwarmer pipe as it becomes is so close to the ground.

 

I used the OEM bottle and mounted it to the back of the engine where there is more space, Juts ran a longer pipe, Has done the trick so far!!

 

I stand corrected

 

I've got this slimline over flow bottle for sale if that's any good to you

 

hi again neil, i might buy it off you once im home on monday i just have to fit my adaptor plate & then try figure something out with the over flow bottle if i have no joy i will give you a shout mate

 

Easy solution - I use the small perrin bottle ,, but for cost reasons & quick availability a push bike water bottle works ideal ,, loads of styles & shapes avail so just go to your local bike store & pick the colour /style you like £10 give or take a few quid
