Sierra M/C Reservoir cap

The cap off the Reservoir of my donor sierra M/C (Bendix type I believe?) is fubar.
A some point in the past the cover/membrane or whatever it is that covers the contacts for the low fluid switch has disappeared. Subsequently the said contacts have rusted up. Also air/water/muck can now get in to the reservoir
Slim chance I know, but does any one have a spare cap lying around that they would swap for beer tokens?

Pretty much all older Fords have the same cap. I picked up a couple from my local scrappy... Have u tried that?

I didn't realise that. That gives me more options . If I draw a blank here, then the local scrappy it is. Thanks.

Cap is also interchangeable with the cap that comes with the girling twin remote master cylinder except that it has only " contacts instead of three for the electrical connector.

If that makes sense.





Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.
