[QUOTE="YYCHM, post: 29001, member: 993"] Here is the cap John ([USER=3]@Janger[/USER] ) printed for me.... [ATTACH=full]10778[/ATTACH] The dimensions were spot on as was the TPI. The thread profile was another matter. I had to knock off the tops of threads before it would thread on. Once it was threading on a hydro test revealed it leaked (probably through the threads). Teflon tap reduced the leaking but didn't eliminate it. Silicon seal smeared through the threads and at the base did the trick. This is what I wanted to achieve, leak proof and not permanent. Thanks John!! [/QUOTE]
