I followed the directions on teamforward and installed it and everythings in. My problem is that i can't get the screw that holds on the coolant reservoir to stay in. Thanks in advance

Well Cavyz2402

Did you make sure that the threaded retainer metal clip is in were the resvorior is located? You might want to take a look around youre engine comparment, If its not there, You may need to add a bigger bolt or purchase a new or used clip piece.

Good Luck

a tight zip-tie job will work just fine for a resavoir... hell my car has been so bastardized by tearing it apart for everything that has been done to it... I am pretty sure half my front end is held on by zip ties. Laugh it up... you think I am kidding.

why wouldn't it be safe? zip ties are pretty tough little bastards, and its only a coolant bottle, not like its heavy or high pressure
