Or am I totally missing something?Ĭlick to expand.This is from the 1994 C/K Truck Manual regarding the Coolant Level Indicator. NOTE: I did not see anything resembling a sensor ON or IN the reservoir - it was just plastic - no wires or anything else other than the cap itself. Hopefully, that was the issue and now the problem is solved. I disconnected the line from the radiator, sprayed it out, cleaned up the reservoir, reattached it, and no warning light so far. ![]() Then I noticed that the line I disconnected had quite a bit of copper build-up in it, to the point where it looked clogged, or at least mostly clogged. It appears someone tried to plug holes in the system using copper at some point and it was caked all over the reservoir. I disconnected the hose from the reservoir and emptied the nasty coolant into a bucket. So I disconnected the 2 bolts and it had a plastic "fin" on the back of it that slid out of a metal holder attached to the firewall. It also had about twice the coolant in it than it should have.

Hi I was told by my mech that general motors had the intake manifold gasket redesign 3 to 4 times and they redesigned the recovery coolant tank cause of failure problems to go to and look recovery coolant tank and what happens is this see you put coolant in the recovery tank with the radiator cap off and and then put the cap on while the engine is running and wait a few mins and it will leak out of the bottom of the tank and when it leaks out it falls down on the harmonic balancer and gets it hot and cause it to be out of balance and get hot and then it wrecks the water pump. ![]()
