My coolant tank and my wiper fluid tank both have a small crack in them, and I need to replace them. I have been putting this off for long enough. I need a price for them shipped to jonesville sc 29353 ;D ;D

I have a coolant tank I would send you. It is used and discolored. 15.00 shipped?

Also, I think I have one of each style one with the coolant level sensor and one without. Let me know which one you have.

I also have a wiper tank from the rear of a rabbit that was cracked at the very top, but it doen't leak except when completely full. Let me know if you would want that as well

I need the one with the sensor :) I also need the front wiper fluid tank so I don't think that the rear one will fit mine :(

Paypal address?

Could you epoxy them? The coolant one would be more iffy but if you got good epoxy and prepped it right, it should hold.

new the coolent is cheap... well not bad price.. id say under 30 with hole for sensor.. nothing can fix its cracks.. too much pressure..

washer bottle... use your soldering iron and a milk jug and melt the 2 together..

I found the tank on partsgeek.com for $21 shipped 2nd day air.   I'll patch the wiper tank as suggested.
Ty for help and suggestions
