201502072.jpgHi,

I know this may sound dumb but what is the paraflu tube for in my Ka? I just bought it today and topped the oil up but not sure what the paraflu thing is at the front near the radiator and what do i need to put in as it is below the minimum level

 

Thanks



If you are on about the blue top, it's the coolant bottle, minimum and maximum markings are further down the bottle
