<div><div id="m_8839174773259163880ydp4019e789yiv8456997034">I have an aluminum aftermarket radiator with an overflow nipple that's 3/8 inch. My aftermarket overflow tank has an inlet tube of 1/4 inch. I'm wondering if anyone has come across this issue before, and if so how did you resolve the issue. I tried a reducing 90 deg;ree ellbow on my tank but it just slides off. Any suggestions out there?<div><br></div><div>See attached photos:</div><div>_</div><div>Below is the same type overflow tank I'm using.
