Dave Get any tapered plastic bottle with a lid. Get two hose clips, one to suit the bottle, a smaller one to go around the rod going across the car, near the radiator. Hold the large clip with the small one. Put the bottle in the hose clip. Fit a pipe from the radiator overflow through a hole in the lid to the bottom of the bottle. If you want to retain the overflow pipe, get some more. Make a small hole in the lid to let the air in and out.
You will not now lose water. The air flow across the bottom of the original overflow acts like a scent spray, continually extracting water.
