Default Radiator cap, for a replacement radiator.

Hi guys, I guess the guy who owned the car before me replaced his radiator for whatever reason. Now the cap from that radiator is leaking, but i dont know what brand of radiator it is, I tried a stock Honda radiator it fits but does not seal and leaks even worse than my old cap.

Anyone know what brand this radiator is? So that I can get a new cap for it.
Heres a couple pic of my radiator and it caps:

take it to the local parts store and they should be able to get one for you.

From the "S" on the cap its a stant I have the same one. it is a stock replacement cap. you dont have a weird rad. you must have tried on of the newer style caps from a newer honda. they are different. just get a stock replacement from the local parts hocker

if the radiator you're using is a factory-type, you're using the wrong radiator cap for it. get a factory-type cap (short-stem'd valve for short fill neck). the cap you have pictured is for like aftermarket performance radiators with the long fill necks.



hope this helps.
