    Oh that I get, but the MR2 doesn't have a route back. The expansion bottle is like one of those wee bottles they give you in hospital.

    If it didn't have a route back your engine would gradually dump all of its coolant into the bottle which would overflow very quickly, think about it.

    The pressure cap is bi - directional, trust me.

    Well bugger me. (no not you). I just had a go at a rad cap with a small screwdriver. There's a small hole in the centre of the pin, and the central cap bit on the bottom has a secondary spring allowing it to open..

    I really fucking hate you, you smug know-all bastard.
