Hey people,

Could you point me to the correct radiator cap for my 1996 spi min ?

Just a bit confused

Looks ok to me, assuming you've definately got a '96 SPi with the side mounted rad. The black ones you may have heard about could be the black plastic ones for the MPi's (which have a front mounted rad with an expansion / header tank) which are different in that they are screw threaded rather than bayonet fitting, and don't have the lugs on each side.

That's the thing, the current one, is the black one type. and looks like the one in the link i posted...

Is this a front mount or side mount rad. Its an odd ball if its an SPi with a front mount rad

[ycming]

is side mounted SPI.
