Default Coolant reservoir bottle removal issue.

My Goodness..What gives! Ever try seperating the coolant tank from the power steering tank on the S70?

So who's got the trick up their sleeve for this one! Lemme Guess,over the years the coolant tank deforms making it almost virtually impossible to seperate the two!

Gotta be careful or else one could be buying both an expansion tank and a power steering tank to boot.

My Lord! rant over!

you need to use something thin and about 3/8 to 1/2" wide and go at it from underneath. There is a till edge to the power steering resevoir. There is also little room to clear it with the thickness of the tab. Lift the assembly up and be patiend. I think I ended up using 2 slip screwdrivers, but don;t quote me.
