it fits the XJS, tons of them out there, nothing magical about the center pipe cap. Mine has had a standard run of the mill stant cap on it for 8 years.

Tidbit: the caps on my '88 V12 are stamped "Jaguar". And the one for the header tank has that little tether. I think that's sorta cool

I wonder if the new caps from JDHT are also stamped?

Cheers

no, the new caps are not ' Jaguar ' stamped, and thats a shame to be honest

the top cap and the expansion tank are different pressures though , hence the tethered cap so it doesn't go on the wrong place

Did the US market cars have cap instructions like mine ? ( genuine Jaguar cap underneath )

Not directly related, but all of the XJSs I've bought have had a black oil filler cap. Where do you guys get the red ones??

I actually painted mine universal engine red because I was tired of misplacing it! Kind of hard to misplace it when it's red!
