I hit the clear plastic tube that shows the level of the coolant on the side of reservoir and it broke off about 4" up from the bottom. It was not bumped very hard. I guess that it was old and brittle. I managed to get the black rubber tube back on the part that was still there without much coolant lost. The tube is tapered down to a very small hole for some reason. So I called Newell to order a new one. They have it and it is $59.95 plus shipping. So be careful around that little clear tube.
