    From the front (eyes low like near radiator...

    I see the tank (front view) 3 to 9 is full of fluid, 12 to 3 is full of fluid, 9 to 12 is empty.
    So it looks like 9:00, full the long way between hands, empty the short way.
    (Gorgeous with HP flashlight!)

    How do it work?

    Is there a vertical baffle for ?return? that overflows into the main tank?

    Is it truly marked Min/Max both or similar? Front/side?

    Special fill/refill procedure?

    Is that simply a vent to the left (9-ish)?
    Need pressure or pressurizing?

    THX all!
