    yes there suppose to overflow out of the cap of the reservoir tank. and the tank is under the battery on the passenger side on the engine bay. there should be a hose from the radiator to the reservoir right next to the radiator cap.

      Underneath my battery box is just a metal hose that lets the water run right out when it over flows

              Yes, if you look you'll see a funnel sticking out next to your battery. If you unscrew the cap you'll see that it has a measuring dip stick attach to the cap.

              That's standard for all 4gen.

                It looks like whoever repaired your car after the accident, did a terrible job, or didn't want to pay to get a new one. But yes, there should be one under the battery.

                    looks like this. it goes under the battery, there a hose that goes onto it from the radiator. u can just pull it out of whats left of the old tank and install it to a another tank. or just go to the junk yard and pull it off any fbody 93-02 any engine. there all the same.

                      Alright, so question, How would I go about getting the bolt in the back, out? Because I was working with wiring, and pulled it out, but one of the bolts sheared off. Tried an extractor, broke that too. Any ideas?
