Special attention should be paid to the ventilation of the
system. The expansion tank for the coolant is also used to
release air bubbles and makes it possible to add coolant into
the system in an easy way. This expansion tank should be at the
highest point of the system and mounted as high as possible.
Most cooling problems originate from air traps
blocking the circulation of the engine coolant.
We use a pressurised system. Wherever the radiators are
mounted, it is necessary to ventilate the exhaust manifold of
the engine. The exhaust manifold has an 8 mm connection for
ventilation. The delivery includes 8 mm high pressure and high
temperature resistant hose in the to connect the hose
connection on the side of the manifold to the expansion tank.
The cooling system should be filled with long-life G12+ cooling
liquid. Initially the engine cooling system can be filled via the
cap on the exhaust manifold of the engine. However, when the
radiator is above the engine one can only fill the system to the
level of the manifold. Additional filling has to be done via the
expansion tank.

When the radiator is flat mounted on the roof, the expansion
tank should be mounted a little higher. (see Figure 16, detail B).

DRY EXHAUST SYSTEM
2.9.1
General remarks
A dry exhaust muffler system should be very effective in
silencing the exhaust when applying the right mufflers.
However, noise could be generated by vibrations in the
mufflers and be transferred to the chassis. Tacit factors like the
length of specific pipe sections could cause the noise to be
amplified. It is very difficult to take these factors into account.
Piping should not rise above the radiator inlet!
