Stopping Cap Leaks
[yjOST American and many English cars are now fitted with lank and radiator caps having a spring-loaded bayonet joint instead of screwing into place. These caps are very convenient, and usually give no trouble through leakage unless a low spot, such as a dent, occurs on the filler neck. Tlie usual practice to remedy this is to file down the jest of ilie neck level with the low spot. A more satisfactory treatment is to till up the low spot with solder until it is slightly above the level of ilie neck, and then file down the solder until it is level.
