I had hissing and a small amount of coolant escape from overflow on header tank just before setting off to Scotland earlier this year. Replaced header tank cap, cured the problem

Ok, so I need a new 1.1bar cap - are they standard? Where do I get one?

Any Motor Factor should have one - common on a lot of Jap cars
