Which expansion Bottle?
Hi all,
I have one of these that i have taken off the kit car
 
exp bot
I want to replace it so that i have a nice clear one to check the levels & Colour etc. Ive found a picture which suggests (from the website it
was on) that its a ford bottle.
Does anyone have any idea please?
Kindest Regards,
Richard.

I want to replace it.

I filled my old rover one full of gravel and whatever chemicals i could find at work, shakey shakey shakey for a while and left to soak for 24 hours,
then into the dishwasher for a stint on 65 degree super wash, its almost like new now.
Give a man a fish & it will feed him for a day, give him a fishing rod & you've saved a fish.

Nope, none at all other than an "E" and an S looking logo - more likely the manufacturer not the OE reseller.

Put it in a bowl of very hot water and SODA CRYSTALS & it will come up like new, got to be worth a go?

If you decide to go the new route, I can recommend that ebay selller.
He has allways provided me a first class service for spares to keep my Cherokee going
I have found that very hot water, fairy liqiud & a healthy dollop of bleach often works wonders on things like that.

Right, after spending all morning in the sink with a kilo of bicarbonate of soda in it, it has made a bit of a difference, but the gunk inside is
greasy and wont budge. I could try some degreaser / steam, but for the effort i should really go for the new one.
Kindest Regards,
Richard.
