Mine looks similar except there is text in the middle of the circle.

Thanks for your help DrkPhx. It looks like they are the same cap pretty much. You can't get the cap on mine really tight. You can get it just a bit snug, but if you tighten in much more it releases all tension and you have to restart, if that makes sense.

Did this cap fix your issues?

I recently bought a new tank from a member here and have the leaking cap issues.

I was thinking of replacing it with one of these

Mines leaking coolant also and the cap wont seal. I thought I bought direct from Roto-fab, mine came from Summit Racing

I bought mine off a member here. Still haven't heard if there is any other fix for this.

Mine was leaking out of the top allover the top of the reservoir. I went to Autozone and bought a Duralast #7062 radiator cap for $12. Same thread but It uses an O-ring seal instead of the top gasket. So far no leaks. My only other option was to buy a D3 unit. I was starting to get alloyed smelling burning coolant.

interesting I bought the 7062 also but couldn't get it to fit my Rotofab tank. Now I have an extra radiator cap.

I did the same thing and it did not fit either. I took mine back and they gave me a refund. If that cap would fit, I probably fix the issue.

I wonder if they changed the res. I bought mine right when they came out early 2013. Maybe you could take the cap you have to Autozone and see if they can match it up to something that they have in stock,

I got a email today from Rotofab and they said they never figured out the cap issue, so they discontinued the product.
