Hi,

My TR 4 is still overheating and I'm wondering if it isn't the radiator cap. 
Moss calls for one with a 3/4" depth, and that seems to be all that's 
readily availiable, but when I measure my filler neck it's 3/4" from the 
inside flange to the top of the neck. It seems like the cap should be 7/8" 
or so to develop any sort of pressure. Are there deeper radiator caps 
availiable, or am I wrong in thinking that the spring should be compressed 
inside the cap?

TIA,

John Matthews
