My car is overheating and one of the obvious observations i have seen is that the mechanic who worked on my car disconnected the 3 reservoir hoses. and has done a wrong connection resulting in improper water circulation, which eventually leads to the overheating within 30 minutes.

i will like if possible a drawing of how and where the three hoses should be connected.

Thank you.

I can understand how that is frustrating. Here is the best diagram I could find that shows the 3 lines coming from the bottle.

Let me know if you need more help. Thanks
