IowaTom Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Guys - This is the way my formerly filthy coolant tank came when I bought the truck. What goes in the 3/4" hole on the front right side? I'm thinkin' a plug? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, just a little black rubber push in plug goes in that hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! I'll get one. I gently removed the top of this tank and cleaned it out, replacing it with some silicone caulk. Tomorrow, I tackle the hanging headliner!
