Radiator Caps? Please.....

OK,
I can understand the fact a 34 year old XJ6 can be difficult to find parts for. I can. But a radiator cap?

Please, I can find almost anything I need except this so...called $10 dollar part.

Any clues and retrofit suggestions would be great! I need the cap for the thermostat housing. The rubber seal has cracked but other wise the construction is in great shape.

Have an Awesome week end all!!

I would go first to a CarQuest, Autozone, NAPA, Advance, PepBoys, etc. and get a STANT cap with the pressure release lever, very handy for these hot-running cars and little money.

try to search online, the problem is that if you look for "Jaguar", they show no listings at STANT's site!! Get a 9 or 12 pound cap, it will do fine, but check your Manual, or call a local Radiator Shop. Original OEM radiator caps are not exactly up-to-date, there's better technology out there.
