Product Description

The Moca CAP EXPANSION TANK 1.2 BAR is a crucial component in your Chevrolet's cooling system, designed to seal the expansion tank and maintain the correct pressure. This cap is engineered to hold a pressure of 1.2 bar, helping to prevent coolant loss and overheating by ensuring the system stays properly pressurised. Its robust orange plastic construction and ribbed edges make it easy to grip during installation or removal.

This cooling pressure cap is compatible with selected Chevrolet models. Always confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure proper fitment, as incorrect caps can lead to cooling issues.

Common symptoms of a failing or faulty expansion tank cap include coolant leaks around the cap, frequent coolant loss, overheating, collapsed or swollen coolant hoses, and visible cracks or wear on the cap. You may also notice steam from the expansion tank or warning lights on your dashboard related to engine temperature.

Replace the expansion tank cap if you observe any signs of damage, pressure loss, or if the cap no longer seals tightly. It is also recommended to replace the cap during routine cooling system maintenance or when replacing the expansion tank itself.
