The Ford EXP radiator overflow bottle is the coolant reservoir that catches coolant pushed out as the engine heats up, then feeds it back to the radiator as the engine cools. That keeps the system full and the engine at the right temperature. It is molded from heat-resistant, high-density plastic, is semi-transparent so you can check the level at a glance, and holds about 1.5 quarts. This is a used bottle inspected for cracks, warping, and a good cap seal.
Owners replace the overflow bottle when it cracks, warps, leaks, or its cap no longer seals, all of which cause coolant loss and overheating. This is a direct-fit reservoir for the 1982 to 1988 EXP with pre-drilled mounting points. Confirm your year and that your cap and hose match this bottle.
