Product Description

This Moca CAP EXPANSION TANK 1.2/1.4 BAR is designed for the cooling systems of select Ford and Opel vehicles. It serves as a pressure cap for the expansion tank, ensuring your cooling system maintains the correct pressure for optimal engine temperature control. The cap features a threaded design with a ribbed grip for easy handling and clear raised instructions for safe operation.

Fitment includes various Ford and Opel models equipped with expansion tanks requiring a 1.2 or 1.4 bar pressure cap. Please confirm the compatibility with your specific vehicle model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure a proper fit.

Common symptoms of a failing expansion tank cap include coolant leaks around the cap, frequent coolant loss, overheating, visible cracks or damage to the cap, hissing noises after shutdown, or a collapsed radiator hose. If you notice any of these issues, the cap may no longer be maintaining the correct pressure.

Replace the expansion tank cap if it shows signs of wear, damage, or if your cooling system is not holding pressure. Regular inspection is advised, especially if you experience recurring coolant issues or overheating.
