Hi, I'm Mike from 1AAuto. We've been selling auto parts for over 30 years! We're dedicated to delivering quality auto parts, expert customer service, and fast and free shipping, all backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee. So visit us at 1AAuto.com, your trusted source for quality auto parts.
Be sure your vehicle is not hot when performing this procedure. When the vehicle has cooled, place your hand over the radiator cap, push down firmly, and rotate two clicks counterclockwise until you can remove the cap.
Now, one of the reasons you might want to replace these is this gasket down here, where the seal at the top goes bad and doesn't keep the correct pressure inside of your cooling system. This can create leaks, as well as issues with other components, your heat, and the temperature of the vehicle. So if yours isn't holding the proper pressure in the vehicle, this new cap from 1A Auto will simply pop on, push down, two clicks clockwise, and fix you up right.
Thanks for watching. Visit us at 1AAuto.com for quality auto parts, fast and free shipping, and the best customer service in the industry.

Had an overheating issue with my Camaro. Looked online, and the suggestion was to replace the Rad cap. Went to a national retailer, and bought a after market cap. Fitment was loose, and issue was not solved. Went to the dealer, didnt have an AC Delco cap in stock, and was $$$$, and was 3-5 days out. Checked 1a, in stock, cheap as hell, and had it in 2 days! (and didnt pay for express shipping).
Problem solved!

Works good I hope you can start including it with the radiator because stick caps dont work on your radiators but together they work great
