Freshman in college at FSU ?

I'm not sure why something like that would be so hard to believe lol...regardless, I found her.

Right behind the Mcdonalds that is conveniently located adjacent to the local strip.
The math adds up...

I installed a new IAC then cleaned up the engine bay a bit.

Then I think I found where all my coolant disappears to. I cleaned out the coolant reservoir, by unplugging it from the filler neck. Then sprayed it with the hose. Then I plugged it back to the coolant filler neck and added coolant. Next I warmed it up to operating temp. I noticed a small stream of coolant coming from that reservoir hose. So I installed a small clamp on it, and hopefully my reservoir will stayed filled for more then three days!

Looks good. Wish my engine bay looked that good. Now tell me. I have a radiator that was replaced but the resovoir was plugged into the bottom of the two inlet/outlets on the cap's neck. The other one is plugged off. You have a hose coming out of yours. Where does that hose go? The one that does like a 180 degree turn? I want to know what I am missing.

Set up the powder coat guy to pick up my Harley wheels to repair the flaking chrome. I'm thinking about powder coating my wheels high gloss black and the factory running boards as well. Does think this might look good. Different for sure.
