Freightliner Cascadia Coolant Reservoir SOLUTION! 

It's good information you give in this video, I am going to change my tomorrow it's really helpful thanks God bless you

I followed your video and was able to do it as well and I also used two bolts coming straight up with JB Weld; thanks a great deal for posting this it saved me a lot.

Thanks for the video, I am facing the same issue with the coolant reservoir, will try that , spray WD40 and wait , then try to loose the 🔩 Thank you 🙏🏻

What I did I cut the tank and left the bolts on there with some plastic around the bolts from the old tank. Than I drilled the new tank out where bolts will go, I made the holes little bigger to go over the old bolts on radiator and drilled few new little holes on new tank that is sitting on plastic from old tank close to bolts and zip tied them together by both bolts.

Thanks for your video, I tried it all and at the end I used cordless impact wrench from harbor freight for 5-7 minutes to spin the bolt with insert constantly pushing up with flat screwdriver finally it got hot and plastic around insert either grinded or melted away and came off

Good video. Thanks for sharing

This is my exact problem. Thankyou!

I've done the same thing and broked my radiator top side and had to replace it I heard there is an easier way to do it you just have to use a torch and heat the bolt until the plastic gets a bit loose and then remove the bolt .

Thanks alot for it . I was planning to change it but now i know what to care about.

Another option when removing the bolt is to get your impact on the bolt like you're trying to remove it and let er rip in reverse. It will heat up the plastic enough eventually to make the removal a bit easier. That there is a great tip. I've replaced maybe a few hundred of these surge tanks.

Nice job 👍

Brilliant idea

I never did get the bolt out...I cut the plastic off on the new one, and just never did bolt that one back in..Its been 4 years still fine missing that 1 bolt

I like how you subconsciously flipped off the engineers that came up with the design in the first place at the 5:00 minute mark.

The side cap on the overflow tank?. Do you tighten it, or leave it lose ? Thanks in Advance . Good video

Do you have an idea of how much changing it should cost me to have someone else to do it? Thanks

What size studs did you use?

Update Please guys be careful, because I did this and I ended up taking it to the dealer to put a new radiator, and what I did is when I use this method to get the insert out with the slide hammer with all the beat to get the bolt out I cracked the top plastic cover of the radiator and after I put the new bolts and the JB Weld everything was fine and no leaks but when I got on the road for about 40 miles I got the shut down message on the screen and I stopped and it was coolant every where, My advice not to beat the bolt and the insert with the slide hammer find another way to get it out like heating it up or grind the surrounding of it or something else, the slide hammer did not work for me

👍👍👍👍👍👍

thanks for the idea

Next time use an impact wrench and it will spin the bolt until it is hot and then it will pop out.
