Hoping somebody could point me in the right direction.

I have noticed my brake fluid resevior cap is not tightening properly (tightens so far then the thread slips round). It also appears that the cap is leaking a small amount of fluid after a run out in the car.

Does anybody know the best place to get a replacement cap. The car is a 1992 pre-cat. I believe its a Ford part but confirmation on specification and a part number would be great.

Thanks in advance

PS What colour is your Griffith, if it's Starfire Mica Blue can you post up the Paint Code.

Yea, the cap on our 80's Fiesta did the same too!

The cap on my Griff will jump a thread if tightened a fraction too much - but does not leak (yet, at any rate).
