So I wouldn't recommend it. Because you have to pay.

Coverage was too tight. That had to be replaced! This item was more expensive than others sold on Amazon. So I wouldn't recommend it. Because you have to pay for another cap.

Pros
  • Ideal - Designed for a seamless installation
Cons
  • Negative item present

Decent value for your money. The cap fits.

Decent item for the money. The lid is a little loose, but I can't find any leaks. The lower hose quick release had to be modified to lock the clip. I was able to fix it in 10 minutes with a pocket knife. So far it fits well and I haven't had any problems.

Pros
  • Rugged construction - made from quality materials to withstand heat and vibration under the hood
Cons
  • Some cons

This part is a good buy as the price is for the exact part and Oreilys.

Part lacks the groove that accepts the spring clip on the larger lower hose. The two smaller upper hose connections made for neat grooving. I took a hacksaw blade and made the groove that was needed for the larger hose. This part is a good buy as the Oreilys price for the specific part and brand is $130.

Pros
  • Rugged design based on 100 years of aftermarket experience
Cons
  • Fits

Design flaws must be modified to be usable. Still, I'm not sure about the quality of the part.

This part is cheap in quality and price. That's about half the money for the same branded part at local auto parts stores, which is good. However, this part has a design flaw and requires modification to use it, which is bad. The lower hose connection has six (three on each side) stiffening ribs which should only be in the upper hose attachment ring but unfortunately go through both the top and bottom. These ribs prevent the wire tie on the coolant hose from entering the slot. I took my dremel…

Pros
  • Direct replacement - this engine coolant tank is the same size and function as the original part
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
