I have a bad radiator cap and local dealers are out, rally is in 2days. Does anyone know if I can get one at auto parts store. I know it has to be 1.1 bar (16 psi).

You have two things to look for - pressure and fit. Aftermarket caps tend not to fit - I think the plunger/spring are generally too deep (from memory) for the Rocket radiator. Either take yours in or check fit before buying one.

Surely fixing a radiator cap can't be too difficult .. only a cap with a whole, a washer and a spring.

You would think. When Peter was here we tried to find a cap for him but none would fit.
