Re: Radiator(expansion tank) cap color. What's the deal? 700 92

posted by  someone claiming to be bob on  Sun Jun 17 05:39 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Never seen a red cap. Aftermarket? The cap color indicates the pressure they will hold. Black is 75kpa. White(diesel) 100kpa. Grey cap, 150kpa. The grey caps have a tendency to crack if overtightened. The green cap(150kpa) is the only replacement Volvo sells and is suitable for all models, and is reinforced to prevent cracking.
