Review: Perfect little overflow bottle - I just installed this in my 60's classic car, where no overflow existed. This bolted right in and looks great. I've seen some reviewers mention the hose and clamps are not good enough. I believe they're wrong. First, this is a no pressure, overflow, meaning the hose and clamps wont see anymore pressure when the engine is running vs shut off. Secondly, the hose clamps fit VERY snug also anyway. I had to use some lubricate to help me slide them on without hurting or breaking anything. In this kind of low pressure application, these style hose clamps are more than acceptable. The hose looks fine also. Thick, clear plastic tubing. I don't expect any failures anytime soon. This looks good installed by the factory plastic washer fluid reservoir and kinda looks like it could have come from the factory with this too. It doesn't look out of place, even with a painted and highly detailed, full dressed in polished aluminum accessories 429ci sitting there. It's not an attractive piece, just functional. It doesn't distract either though, just like the washer fluid. Now I wont just loose coolant on the ground every time I shut the engine down, and risk the system getting low. So silly how they used to have no overflow catch cans back in the day. A must add on for any classic car without one. Great value for the money. As a side note, I like dormans small version also. Installed one on my wood chipper many years ago. It's been working great since also. I don't like everything made by this brand, but the majority of things I found acceptable. When it comes to their overflow tanks though, there's no need to spend anymore on something else. These will do the job and last for many issue free years. I expect at least a decade out of this, and will probably get two or even more. Review: Exact Replacement - It's really hard to find replacement parts for my 1992 Winnebago Chieftain WCN32RQ. I was so glad to find this coolant reservoir. Installation was quick and easy, A perfect fit, everything was included and quality product. I highly recommend this product. ## Features - Great for modification or replacement - this engine coolant recovery tank kit catches and returns coolant on cars, trucks, boats, motor homes and many other applications - Made in USA - durable accumulator bottle is designed and manufactured with thicker and longer-lasting plastic than cheap competitor models - All necessary equipment included - accumulator bottle, cap, hang basket with mount holes, overflow tube, tube clamps, washers and mounting clips - Multiple shapes and sizes available - similar designs with different reservoir dimensions available for fitting into particular spaces or making room for other components - Support available - every Dorman part is backed by Dorman's ASE Blue Seal Certified technical support team ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B016V2BIB0 | | Best Sellers Rank | #22,977 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) #8 in Automotive Replacement Engine Coolant Recovery Kits | | Brand | Dorman | | Brand Name | Dorman | | Connector Type | Quick Connect | | Contact Type | Normally Open | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,634 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00037495540025 | | Included Components | (1) Accumulator Bottle, (1) Cap, (1) Hang basket with Mount Holes, (1) Overflow Tube, (2) Tube Clamps, (2) Washers, (4) Mounting Clips | | Item Part Number | 54002 | | Item Type Name | Engine Coolant Recovery Kit | | Item Weight | 1 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Dorman Products | | Model | 54002 | | Mounting Type | Screw Mount | | Operation Mode | Automatic | | Part Number | 54002 | | UPC | 037495540025 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Limited Lifetime Warranty | | Wattage | 30 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Dorman - **Connector Type:** Quick Connect - **Contact Material:** Nickel - **Contact Type:** Normally Open - **Mounting Type:** Screw Mount ## Images ![Dorman 54002 Engine Coolant Recovery Kit Universal Fit - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61nH5qRLy0L.jpg) ![Dorman 54002 Engine Coolant Recovery Kit Universal Fit - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71KLUmWwsnL.jpg) ![Dorman 54002 Engine Coolant Recovery Kit Universal Fit - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/617RVpTkB4L.jpg) ![Dorman 54002 Engine Coolant Recovery Kit Universal Fit - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61XRJ9sF9FL.jpg) ![Dorman 54002 Engine Coolant Recovery Kit Universal Fit - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71O1LAPpZYL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this fit a kubota mx5000f?** A: This is a universal tank.
