Good day everyone
My question is.....If I remove the radiator cap and look down into the top tank. Should I be able to see the hole that connects to the top radiator hose?

Bye for now
Mike

You can see the pipe from the inlet hose
You can not see the hole

Thanks Bluezone
Your picture shows exactly what I needed.

My radiator does have the exact same overflow tube, but it does not have the metal tube just above the core. I don't believe there ever was one on my radiator. Maybe that's why I have antifreeze coming out the cap when the engine gets hot.
Bye for now
