Joe,
If you are getting water out short of boil over, you are just filling it 
too much.  In a Tiger this is well down from the opening and is actually 
below
the top of the radiator.  What you need is a recovery tank like a modern 
car, this will keep the system full.. heat expansion pushes water into the
recovery tank and when it cools back down it will be sucked back in.
Antifreeze tastes good but poisons small animals, please make this mod.
It sounds like your new cap with two rubber seals is the correct one 
already, the original Tiger had only one seal at the bottom IIRC.

Joe

                I believe I bought my radiator cap from Sunbeam =
Specialties.

Cap indicates 9 lbs. and G630.

Rubber seal to rubber seal is .805=E2=80=9D.

I installed a catch bottle for the header tank overflow.   Catches any =
overflow which gets sucked back in when the engine cools.

=20

The Parts lists indicates 9 lbs. later cars and 13 lbs. early cars.

=20

Tiger, An Exceptional Motorcar indicates B382001521 as last unit with =
early header tank and 9 lb. cap =E2=80=93 B382001522 1st Tiger with =
updated header tank and 13 lb. cap.

=20

Well, no really good help there.

=20

I=E2=80=99m thinking 9 lbs. for early cars and 13 lbs. for later cars is =
correct

Hi,

I'm hoping one of you guys can tell me what radiator cap I should be =
using.  I've tried a cap that was listed as being for a Tiger on =
Autozone's website but I think the pressure spring part under the cap is =
too short.  I almost immediately start getting water out of the overflow =
tube as the engine warms up.  I measured the depth of the expansion tank =
opening from the top edge to the flange where the spring part of the cap =
would sit and got .777".  I measured the cap from the big rubber seal =
just under the cap to the small rubber seal at the end of the spring and =
got something like .75".  So it looks like I need a cap with a longer =
spring stem. =20

=20

A brand name and part number would be great.  And also, what should the =
pressure rating be?  What I have is 13 lbs.

=20

Thanks,

Joe Brown

I pulled out my copy of TBON and he also listed a 9 lb. cap up to
B382001521 and 13 lb. after that.

I sent an email to Rick at SS to see if his part number RC5 is the cap you
described. It doesn't say it's for the Tiger, it just says it's for the
series V.

Just to add to my confusion I took a look at the Tiger Parts List
Supplement (pub number 6601131) and I'm guessing this only covers the
Tigers up to  B382001521 because it only shows the 1224725 header tank and
Ron has  Parts List 6601334 which show two more tanks.    Parts List
6601131  says the 9 lb. cap is for "later" cars and the 13 lb. cap is for
"earlier" cars.  This seems to contradict what is in TBON.  Is it possible
that some of the earliest cars had 13 lb. caps and then they went to 9 lb.
caps until they changes the header tanks?

The Rootes part number for the 9 lb. cap is 5220487 and when I Google that
number I can see that is also a Mopar part number from back in the day.
All of the usual sources want to cross this over to a 13 lb. cap.  I did
find a 9 lb. cap made by Motorad but I can't find what the stem length is.
I guess I will have to go down to the different part stores and look at
what they have.

Sunbeam Specialties has three different caps for sale but they are for
Alpines, not Tigers.  I asked Rick if any of them would work for the Tiger
and he said the pressure rating was too low.

Ron, the G630 cap pulls up as a match for some older Land Rovers but I'm
only finding used ones.

If anybody has recently purchased a new cap that is working fine please let
me know what you got.

Thanks,
Joe Brown

The change in pressure could go either way for different reasons.

The alpines ran 7 and 9lbs. Once you get to higher pressure the heater
cores budlge as they were not built for higher psi.

So maybe the Tigers had low psi to start and they raised psi to help with
overheating by raising boiling point....

Or they started with higher and lowered to stop heater core issues. ..????

                Yes, this topic is confusing.   My Shop Manual states 13 =
lb. cap for both 260 and 289 engines but I do not see a publish date for =
the Manual.

=20

Not sure if an original Shop Manuals state anything different.

=20

I=E2=80=99m not the original owner of my Tiger so I can=E2=80=99t say =
for sure the 9 lb. cap is correct.   I believe that is how I bought it =
and I have continued with the 9 lb. cap.

=20

All indication seem to point to the 13 lb. cap being OK to use on any =
Tiger.

Just to add to my confusion I took a look at the Tiger Parts List =
Supplement (pub number 6601131) and I'm guessing this only covers the =
Tigers up to  B382001521 because it only shows the 1224725 header tank =
and Ron has  Parts List 6601334 which show two more tanks.    Parts List =
 6601131  says the 9 lb. cap is for "later" cars and the 13 lb. cap is =
for "earlier" cars.  This seems to contradict what is in TBON.  Is it =
possible that some of the earliest cars had 13 lb. caps and then they =
went to 9 lb. caps until they changes the header tanks?

=20

The Rootes part number for the 9 lb. cap is 5220487 and when I Google =
that number I can see that is also a Mopar part number from back in the =
day.  All of the usual sources want to cross this over to a 13 lb. cap.  =
I did find a 9 lb. cap made by Motorad but I can't find what the stem =
length is.  I guess I will have to go down to the different part stores =
and look at what they have. =20

=20

Sunbeam Specialties has three different caps for sale but they are for =
Alpines, not Tigers.  I asked Rick if any of them would work for the =
Tiger and he said the pressure rating was too low. =20

=20

Ron, the G630 cap pulls up as a match for some older Land Rovers but I'm =
only finding used ones.

=20

If anybody has recently purchased a new cap that is working fine please =
let me know what you got.

=20

Thanks,

Joe Brown

I pulled out my copy of TBON and he also listed a 9 lb. cap up to =
B382001521 and 13 lb. after that.=20

=20

I sent an email to Rick at SS to see if his part number RC5 is the cap =
you described. It doesn't say it's for the Tiger, it just says it's for =
the series V.

                Thank you for the pictures.

It appears I have the MOPAR 5220487 Filler cap =E2=80=93 good to know.

=20

This also indicates that any 522xxxx number in the Parts List is a =
Chrysler part number =E2=80=93 excellent.
