[Mk2] [Turbo] Where does the expansion tank hose go? Into atmosphere?
Hi, on the MK2 turbo there is a coolant plastic cap that has a T shaped adapter on the top. It has 2 hoses coming off, one goes to where the metal coolant cap is, and on the other side of the T its just a small 6 inch hose that goes nowhere?

The story is the car came without the grommit and without that temp sensor installed into the apexi intake so i have no idea how the rubber fit fits or should lo...
