Coolant Overflow Hose
I noticed that the hose coming out of my coolant overflow cap was simply hanging on the right side, cut clean and not attached to anything. There was a bit of dried coolant in the surrounding area. I don't really have time to look into it right now, is it something that I can simply plug up or ignore until I flush the coolant in two weeks?
Here is a picture I found of the hose on here, I marked roughly how far down mine goes.

Oh phew, thanks Jeff! That's the first time that I've had it overflow so I figured it wasn't supposed to make a mess lol.
Sounds like a good idea Jason, when I flush the coolant in a few weeks I'll likely do so.

Does it hang like that on all RX-8s? That first picture I found looked like it was clamped onto something so that's why I was concerned, but I assume that was done by the owner?
