Hi, can anyone tell me which Fords had the pressure cap in the thermostat housing? seem to think it was the early crossflow fiestas, but not sure?

Or anyone got one spare/for sale?

Cheers.
Pete.

Cheers, close but not quite, got one of those, that type takes the fan switch, I need the pressure cap type so I can go without an expansion tank...

Thanks.
Pete.

I think its the Mark 1 Xr2. Burtons sell them brand new but they aren't cheap.

Its a bit scruffy but intact - let me know if your interested !

Strongly advise using an expansion tank/header tank.
