I mounted an over flow bottle in the same location.

My choice was a rectangular Nalgene bottle.

I drilled 1 hole in each "shoulder" of the bottle. Hose from Sunbeam overfl=
ow went to the bottom of bottle.=20

Other hose stuck in just an inch or so and went down to the bottom of the c=
ar.  Been working great for nigh on 20 years.
