The vent pipe from the top of the radiator goes to atmoshere and there is no sealed chamber between tank and vent. I have two of these radiators and they both are the same. Were these meant to be that way or is something missing? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 | pressure caps didn't start till after the war, so yes, you have a "no pressure" rad, should have a plain flat cap
