  • Radiator tanks

    Yeah, the plastic tanks. Nooo, not the over flow tank. Nooo, not the tank cap. (Rant and vent from calling parts stores, and them jumping to conclusions.)

    Not only festiva/aspire, but any application.

    Where do we find new tanks? Who makes them? Who sells them? Obviously someone does.

    Any ideas? I've burned hundreds of dollars because of cracked tanks, and perfect cores...

    Ive only saved a handful because of finding junk yard to pop the old tank off, make my own o-ring, if needed , pinch the tangs back down and presto.

      I did find a company actually. They show aspire stuff too.

      Although my direct headache isn't listed. 01 chevy tracker. Knock off from the suzuki line. Hopefully a cross reference will help me.

            Impressive. A whole radiator is around $70-80 on RockAuto with probably $20 shipping by comparison.

                  Might be still an option for you. Unless they have replacements. When I get home I'll get the #
