Subject:Adapt 1.9 Coolant Reservoir to 2.1 ?
From:Neil N <musomuso@GMAIL.COM>

Hi all.

I may have access to OEM 1.9 WBX
coolant reservoirs.
If I adapt the 2.1 coolant hose to fit the 1.9 tank nipple,
would this reservoir have a negative affect the 2.1 cooling system?
i.e. is this a Bad Idea?

images of 1.9 and 2.1 reservoirs:

2.1  http://www.van-cafe.com/shop/images/025.121.403B.jpg

They look very similar save for the upper nipple.

Thanks

Neil.
