    Motorad T46 left radiator cap for the 1999-2010 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 4.3L / 4.8L / 5.3L and other vehicles seals the cooling system and holds it at pressure. It is also called an engine coolant reservoir cap.

    • Rated for 15 psi, so the cooling system keeps its proper pressure
    • Relief and vacuum valves are built in
    • 100% tested for proper pressure and longevity
    • Designed for easy installation and removal
    • Meets all OEM specifications

    A cracked or hardened rubber seal, coolant residue around the filler neck or steady coolant loss can mean the cap no longer holds pressure. Before you replace the cap, rule out hose leaks, a weak water pump or a head gasket problem, since those can also cause overheating and coolant loss.

    It is listed for a wide range of models from Chevrolet, GMC, Buick, Cadillac and other makes, including the 1999-2011 GMC Sierra 1500 4.3L / 4.8L / 5.3L and the 1999-2010 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 5.3L, with one cap per vehicle. If your car is not named here, look it up in the "Vehicles it fits" section.
