[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 416332, member: 13599"] I am not an expert on this matter but I do have 3 or 4 of these fine metal vintage tanks. I have heard that when the cap gets rusted or lost, the boater simply goes down to the auto store and buys a radiator cap for it - - - - this does NOT work on these tanks. The original cap has a relief valve in the cap - the radiator cap does not. So first - check to see what kind of cap you have. it should have a wire spring type keeper fastened to the cap, #14 & 15 then, come back with your findings.
