It is supposed to do it. There is the hose going from the thermostat to the overflow tank. However, it doesn't actually go inside the tank. So it flows into the tank, but doesn't get sucked back in. I used a smaller hose and ran it through the larger one. It goes from the thermostat housing (right where the larger hose connects) into the actual tank then. I'll show you a pic later when I get home or tomorrow. Can't get to it from work. It's an easy fix if that one doesn't do it.

And I don't think its just an ebay thing. Looks like the hoses and everything are the same in the pictures on that site.
