radiator cap replacement: 93 geo metro
« on: August 12, 2021, 08:06:06 AM »
Just as an fyi (this is probably known already) a 93 Geo metro radiator cap is a direct swap on for a C10, and most parts stores have one in stock.

Last sat was out riding and it seemed to have a bit of incontinence, so swung by advance auto and 7 bucks later:
I break and fix stuff.  No more concours's in the stables. see you guys around...

Here in the UK we have the 'gpz900r portal' aka GPZ zone, they sell parts for the 900, 500, 600, and 1000RX
Many parts fit our gtr1000, they do a radiator cap for about £12 and a thermostat for £20: half the price of genuine parts!
Also sell genuine parts, plus loads of bits n pieces that fit our 1000 😁
