I think there are three versions of rad cap, maybe four. They get progressively better at working/not blocking up until the final version which came on the 1100s which finally seems to be reliable. Mine had started to collapse the pipe that goes through the crank cover as the system couldn't breathe in and was a vacuum - it seems to be a common complaint.
As an aside, mine has run rich/cold ever since I fitted the later radiator - anyone know if this is normal? I am cretinous enough to have reused the washers on the temperature sensor/plug though so it could well just be that making the connection a higher resistance than it should be.
