Whip down the supermarket and have a look

Failing those ideas you can buy a new overflow tank off eBay for about $30. Lid included.

$30 bucks you say parksy. Might just do that if have no luck. Cheers bud

Maybe one might fall in your pocket while you're walking around the wreckers?

It could, stranger things have happened, lol

Lol haha yea just like the seat handle at the auctions the other day :) didn't think if the cap! Ah well

Ended up cutting the end of the garden tap fitting, where you click the hose on,and using a sheet metal circle I cut with tin snips along with the rubber gasket that came with the garden hose to tap adapter. Should be right I think! :)

So its a 3/4 bsp thread??

Yea it seems that way! Took up pretty good! That bottle is vented to atmosphere so not holding pressure!
