hi guys, dad just fitted the 1275 last week, in one of many manuals it states that you need to get a 10lb rad cap, does anyone know where to get one that is the right depth as he can only find ones that aren't as deep as the rad neck is long! please...your answers will be graciously received!
p.s-will the mini one fit as there are a few on ebay atm...

are u using the standard minor rad, if so a 8lb cap will do or even a 7lb, these are easier to source, if you get really stuck i have one u can buy from me

10lb sounds a bit high. Just use anything that seals - and put a catch bottle on the oulet hose. Anything that escapes will be sucked back in when it cools!
