    Radiator hose bung/end cap

    Hi guys,

    I know a few of you have done away with the secondary radiator and capped off the hose ends.

    Seems a simple job - a 22mm bung/end cap suitable for clamping with a jubilee clip.

    But can I find one? No! Been to all the usual suspects - Halfords, B&Q, etc.

    Where can I get a couple of these please?

    Thanks,

    Go to any go-faster chav stockist and buy a dump valve blanking plug.

    Does the job perfectly as S2Ian can confirm on my old motor.

    Other option is go to Wickes and buy a dome insert plug and put it in the pipe and tightened with jubilee clib. Works fine also.

      Travis Perkins did nicely for me, get a pair of copper pipe end caps, will cost you about £2, or £8 if you want the fancy versions
