Too much coolant a problem???

Popped to Honda today & picked up some coolant & they only had the 5 litre jobby.

Anyways, just put some in the beastie & it's gone over the MAX mark due to holding a funnel & 5 litre bottle.

Is this gonna cause a problem?

There is about 5-6 inches of the bigger part of the bottle still empty before it goes into the thinner neck.

Cheers in advance Gang
 
Syphon some out matey. Not sure if it would cause problem. Overfilling something usually can cause problems. Especially oil which we all know about.

I don't think I'll find a long & flexible enough syphon tbh Steve :?

Don't wanna have to loss some by undo'ing the drainage plug

Cheers Kevin :wink:

I've fashioned a long thin & flexible syphon this evening from see through straws :lol:

Will have a go @ getting the excess out in the morning before the journey to work :wink:

Out of interest how much did you pay for the 5L as I also bought the same today. :)

£13, that right?

Neil - I had to discard said home made syphon as it was pants!!! :lol:

Sound right - I paid £12, but I got my GF to order it in from Honda through the Ford Dealership she works at.
 
All sorted now :D

When & got some windscreen washer tubing which was ideal!!!

Now just @ MAX & my mind is @ rest
