CCKW RADIATOR CAPS
Posted: Mon Feb 06, 2006 8:51 pm
Remember, the original WWII Issue Radiator Cap your truck left the factory with had no rubber seal on the bottom of the pressure valve, the portion that contacts the ledge that is at the inside of the filler neck. Instead there was a fibre gasket that was placed inside the neck for the pressure valve to seal against. If you are using a replacement cap with the rubber seal on the bottom of the pressure valve, the fibre gasket should be removed. The original WWII type gaps will not function if the gasket is not in place.
