    I just noticed this morning namaga rubber sa Radiator Cap.

    medyo mas masikip than usual na sya pag sara ko yung radiator.

    Sira na ba Rad Cap ko?

    Ano kaya cause nito?

    and ano effect kung di ko mapalitan?

    some rubber compounds and oil don't mix. nalagyan siguro ng oil yung rubber kaya namaga.

    Namaga din yung rad OEM cap ko. Though looking at the coolant, mukhang hindi naman contaminated.

    Since may flow pa din naman between reservoir and radiator and wala akong overheat problems, I'm still using the cap. Hindi ko na lang pinapakialaman parati baka lalong masira pa.

    Observe mo ang level ng coolant sa reservoir kung nababawasan o hindi. There might be no noticeable leak from the cap when idling pero kung umaandar ka me leak. If not, huwag mo na palitan.

    Kung OEM cap at wala pa naman overheating, ok pa siguro. Kaya lang dapat may spare ka na dala kahit hindi OEM, para in case nasa lugar na alanganin at bigla nagka diprensya, at yun ang dahilan, may ipapalit kaagad.
