What kind of bottles are you guys using? I have a nice set of shrouds but the rub on my rezzies, I will have to cut them. You both have sick quads.

walsh and predator bottles are the same thing except the predator bottles are about $20 cheaper i believe.


Thanks,

I do not have an overflow bottle, just a line to the bottom of my quad.

Its a good idea to always run an overflow bottle. As your engine warms up it will push out a little coolant, using the overflow catches the small amount that pushes out. When the engine cools down it will suck the coolant back into the system. This setup should always keep your cooling system full as long as you dont have any leaks, head gasket issues, or overheat.

Thank you

I'm not trying to hjack or anything. But, I just bought my new CRF from eastcoast atv from dave. They said that they had just rebuilt it, it was ready to go. Well as soon as I start running it, this year. A combination of oil and fuel seem to be leaking out my mid engine (the gasket right below my intake). It's alot that leaks how, enough to where I would I have put some more oil in after every run I would do to break it in. I mean, my guess is that it's the gasket that got folded over or something and now my antifreeze is leaking into my oil thus coming out my carb or mid gasket. I just thought I would ask around b4 paying my mech to rebuild the damn thing.

Thanks
