My original 11.6psi Murena radiator cap seems to be working fine, despite its age. But because of it’s age I’ve been concerned for a while that it might fail one day.
I’ve now found an exact equivalent – 11.6psi/0.8 bar and exactly the same size, including short reach. It’s made in the UK by Vapormatic, the parts division of John Deere (the tractor people), and can be ordered from a local agent or online. The reference number is VPE3262.
Here’s the part on Vapormatic’s website:
