Re: Expansion tanks and caps
can you do 2 things for me:
1 - say what it is you're selling, I can't see the image (it's blocked at work) is it GTT, if so is it PH1, or PH2?
2 - post the image on RTOC (using the "upload pictures or files button" that appears below when you make a post) as those images don't get blocked.

As Shakal isn't online at the moment, I thought I'd try and help. They're for phase 2 GTT's, let me know if you can see the pic

quoting from haynes for renault 19
BROWN CAP : 1.2 BARS (19 1.4 /1.7/ 1.8 8v )
BLUE CAP : 1.6 BARS (19 16v )
to my understanding hotter running engine
needs higher water pressure .
hence all 16v models are supposed to use the blue
however many williams owners mentioned they
had brown caps on their cars in the past
which makes it even more confusing again :rolleyes:

Re: Expansion tanks and caps
spot on cheers for the info, so which is better to run on the 5.. i have no pressure in header tank even when at hottest due to runnin cold temp stat an switch.. can take cap off when at hottest an nothing.. so take it dont matter wot colour i use lol :)

if it gets any hotter than ambient it'll build up pressure, if you don't have pressure it's because you have a leak - maybe your rad cap doesn't seal.

Re: Expansion tanks and caps
oh yeah, the difference been a low and high temp stat/switch is something like 6deg, 83 compared to 89? Not massive.

no rad cap on it at all, doesnt have one.. all bleeding nipples are fine an honestly doesnt build up pressure unless its very minimal.. but i can have my header tank cap off when its at hottest an it doesnt pump out of even when i screw cap off it doesnt hiss :)

which is why I said rad cap - or on your terms expansion bottle cap. That way it's an air leak, not a water leak. Whatever, it's your car.

It depends on what you like, a bit like pink and brown :cooter:
Read the top of the thread and tells you what sort of cars they fit. you want a blue cap for the 5 ;)

Re: Expansion tanks and caps
Oh, right.. Cheers.
But, going off Schackals post, brown caps are for the 1.4 8v engine, and blue for the 1.8 16v?

yeah thats what it says in haynes manual for renault 19 but they did not have
a 1.4 turbo version and as far as i know 5 turbos came with brown caps .
if i was you i would use what i originally had on my car .
