I suggest sticking with Toyota because I bought one aftermarket and the thing did not seal well and keep leaking.

The problem is that the stealership charges $100 for that plastic tank. I know cause I checked with them first 2 years back when I replaced mine.

I did however pull a Toyota one from a junkyard for $5. Still working just fine.

Coolant tank for 94-96 I4 is around $100, for 92-93 I4 is around $40-50. The 92-93 one work just fine, they are the same tank but comes with different hoses. My 2cents.

Thanks All. I guess i am taking my vehicle to Radiator Specialist. When i drive for 10 miles or more @ 60+ Miles an hour speed, I smell some burning oil smell and soon there is a white/black smoke coming out of the engine. I checked today and looks like its coming from Radiator.Do you guys suggest me to do some preliminary test to confirm its actually radiator?

TIA

Oil burning smells NOTHING like coolant burning. Are you SURE that what you are smelling is oil?
