Hi Guys,

This is the second pipe installed after the fan belt snapped, wrapped around the fan and caused it to explode and take out thr radiator. How is the overflow pipe routed? Does it just hang there centimeters from the fan? I cable tied it. Looks crap and there was some clearance if i spun the fan around while the car was stationary but after driving the fan just ate through it. Pls help..

I'm assuming you're speaking of the thin pipe that goes to the top right corner of the Radiator when looking at it from the front. It's routed under the fan shroud above the radiator. If all your covers are in place you shouldn't see it.

Thats the one. So it sits on top of the radiator not behind it, if looking from the front?
