BillyBob Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 Would like to establish 'correct cooing system' for 1977. I've seen/read conflicting information on whether or not 1977 system used a coolant recovery system. Personally, I only have seen vehicles with a recovery system. The recovery system that I'm familiar with has a split upper radiator hose with a tube insert consisting of a rad cap (no ears for ease of removal) and a fitting for a hose to connect to the recovery bottle. The recovery bottle has a screw-on, non-pressurized plastic cap with its inlet on the bottom and the overflow on the top - pointed toward the front. The bottle is located in the RH front corner of the engine compartment. Who can confirm the correct system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theGman Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 That's the system I have on my '81. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James T Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 That's the system I have on my '81. My 50K mile all original 77 is the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
