Header tank cap
« on: 26 September 2008, 22:44:07 »
Hi Dose the header tank cap have a relief valve in it and how dose it work.

My lod header was full of oil after a oil coorler leak. I changed the tank but not the cap......all seem fine but when i took the cap off the rubber seal has been eaten away ....I think this was becuse of the oil .

Does anyone know the cost of a new one.

Thanks

Steve.
