Just wondering if anyone lives in or around Geelong who might have one of these they are willing to trade for some cash money?

I done the silly thing of breaking the overflow off whilst refitting my head on the weekend.

Can you drill and tap a hole and screw in a barb fitting, say 1/8bsp? Secure with a blob of araldite

That was an option, and I did proceed doing so but my drill bit decided to bite and I took a small chunk out of the mating surface which the radiator cap seals against..... game over!! Haha

I bought mine from here:

Good price and great service.

Personally, with this type of part I wouldn't muck about trying to fix it or buy a used one. Too much at stake if it goes wrong.

Cheers mate, where is here? Lol.

It’s not urgent really as I have an after market radiator which has an expansion outlet so I have just routed from that to the over flow bottle for now
