a question about filler caps?
Is the filler cap supposed to be a spring loaded pressure cap like the radiator cap??

Just a big old rubber gasket underneath, no locking anything whatsoever.

Just go to the auto parts store with the old cap and get a new one exactly like it.

I'm sure the FD cap fits but why?
