I had a hair line crack in my M998 Surge Tank around one of the small top (pressure side) nipples.
I didnt resist the cheapest knock off version I found and regret buying it. It has/had a poor cheesy spot welds holding the fill cap neck (2 pieces) to the reservoir and no sealant at all between the two metal pieces. Of course it leaked. I did get a refund.
Now I am looking for the correct replacement. I like the square bottom B type since it holds a little bit more coolant.
What should I buy and from where? -- So I don't have this cheap knock off issue again? The welded aluminum ones are a bit much for me at this point.
The part number I find in the Parts Vol 1 TM-9-2320-280-24P-1 PAOZZ 2930012565350 19207 12340061
Part numbers that I have been using to search
