Missing hose from engine coolant recovery tank
 
I have discovered that I'm missing a hose somewhere and I don't know what happened. My engine coolant recovery tank has a hose from the radiator to the tank but the cap photo in my owner's manual shows two hoses connected to the cap. I had to order a new cap and that's when I noticed. YWhat type of hose do I need and where does it connect to (besides the cap)? I have a 2001 tracker.

If you could post a pix or two, would be better to help. Older cars use a secondary hose for drain, so, I don't know without an image

As you can see my car has the cap missing but only one hose which goes from the radiator to the reservoir. It looks like I'm supposed to have another hose from the second photo.

the hose from rad to the reservoir allows coolant to move from the reservoir to radiator. the second hose is an overflow drain. when the reservoir is overfilled from an overheat condition...this hose directs fluid onto the ground.

Thank you, I found the hose I needed.
