Default LP radiators are similar to CMP Ford truck radiators

The cap is a plain cap. It isn't a pressurised type as there is an overflow valve.see pic below.

I think a standard CMP Ford cap should work.
Anyone got a CMP and an LP carrier who can confirm this?

The cap is not a pressure controlling cap. It just seals the system the pressure is controlled by this valve, as per Robs post
