One of mine finally failed, Apr of 08 I installed thermocaps on both Valks and posted it here for several months other VRCC members tried them and had problems with leaks. Just wanted to let everyone know one of mine finally failed today, I noticed antifreeze inside the gauge and put tthe original cap back on.

I bought two. One would not allow the antifreeze to return to the radiator on cool-down. the other is still working. They are another example of Chinese manufacturing prowess.
It's a brave new world out there
