This is a message to Fred Birkbeck in Australia. I tried to send it to
Fred's former e-mail address but it was returned. With your indulgence
I'm sending it via the newsgroup.

> Hello Fred,

> This is in reference to your modification of a flat rad radiator cap and
> addition of a coolant recovery system. You wrote me about your mods

> Well, the dreaded windscreen misting must be dealt with and I fully

> the rad cap. One point you didn't mention was whether or not you
> retained the pressure relief valve in the rad overflow line. That's the
> spring loaded ball located just inside the filler neck on the overflow
> line.

> Please let me know that detail and then I'll hop to on the catch bottle

> Best wishes for a happy holiday season.
