RC 40 Thermostat Cap
« on: November 14, 2024, 04:54:32 pm »
If you are in need of a replacement or just want a spare you can get a NOS AC Delco cap on Ebay from carb_ologist.

I have ordered 2 from him and they are in perfect condition. Last I looked, he still has 8 in stock.

In my previous searches I found dried or cracked gaskets. Any brand other than AC Delco, including those from The Fiero Store are near impossible to install due to a different metal plate underneath the gasket.

2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

I needed one for the 86. Once I got it and saw the quality, I ordered a spare just in case the 87 cap starts to puke.
