Option B install help

Just got my option B kit from ZZP but I have some questions on the install. On the tank itself there is a spot on the bottom for an electrical connection of some sort. Anyone know what that goes too? Then coming off the tank there are 3 lines for tubes. One is on the bottom about 3/4 inch with no tube, where does that go? There is a small line at the top, where does that go? Then where does the line go that already has a hose attached to it? Thanks for the help.

The portion that has the electrical connections you need not worry about. You connect nothing there sincethis kit uses the same tank already installed in your car for coolant recoveery. The black hose already installed you leave there. The small tube is for your bleed line coming off of your H/E. The large connector goes inline via a t-fitting for your water to air cooling system. Did you purchase a front mount H/E as well or just using the stock? Here is a link from ZZP's website.

Yeah that link isn't all that helpful. I also have the stock filler neck. I'm using a zzp s2 heat exchanger.
The small line on the left is the bleeder line. The one on the right goes where?



Then this line on the bottom goes where?

The line on the bottom is the overflow line between the outlet on the dual pass and the inlet on the heat exchanger pump

you splice in a "T" fitting and the "T" line goes to the bottom there

Thats because its a regular saturn coolant surge tank, thats designed for a coolant level sensor if you look on the drivers side you see a tank thats alot like it, it has that, you dont need to hook anything up to it and really theres nothing that you can hook up to it.

So what do I do with the black tube already on the tank? It has to go somewhere.

omg it doesn't go anywhere it's an overflow tube so it drips on the ground instead of flying all over the hood if something goes wrong this is common sense stuff

Oh, I just thought everything was sealed but ok cool. Then the small line can go to the other small line on the filler neck.

If I did what would I run the bleeder line too from the option B tank? I don't have an air bleeder line on my h/e.

there is a bleeder bung on the top of the stock heat exchanger. that would be where you run the bleeder line from

I don't have a stock h/e. And then I guess I should just cap the line then if I'm not going to use it as a bleeder line.
