Review on Gates Radiator Cap 31523 by William Mistretta

This is a 15 lb sealed cap for under $4 that fits my 1990 Chevy K2500 350 TBI pickup. I have just received mine and it is 2 flanges not 4 flanges as pictured and made in France. not Mexico. For me the number of pinky grips doesn't matter and I don't see why this might be an issue for some to the point where they give it a 1 star rating. Anyway, it's been 5 years since my last one and it was a rubber gasket that was starting to leak a bit so that's been a decent lifespan considering where it's located and what it's doing. I knew it was time to replace it when I saw some coolant around the radiator neck and some rusty deposits inside.
