has anyone had the upper ic shoot water from the cap. i put a new cap on and still have the problem. i checked for kinks in the hoses thinking its building up pressure then releasing, but they are ok. i think its johnson pump.

My ass. Look at it.
Re: upper ic

Well, I've seen them leak from the cap, due to not seating properly, but never shoot out. I would check the lines for blockage.

When I put a new cap on mine, I had to push down a little harder to get it to close all the way.

Re: upper ic

Where did you guys get your new caps from? Local parts store? Internet? I have been looking for one.

I am pretty sure you can get those caps at NAPA. (it doesnt hurt that I work there but...) I think I have seen caps that will work at work.

Re: upper ic

Mine was doing the same thing (shooting out from under the cap). If you look at the lip where the cap grips the neck, its probably worn out and/or bent. You can do what I'm going to have to do and find another aluminum neck from a stock upper IC or an aluminum radiator neck and have it welded on. I'm still trying to find one but when I do, I'll try to get some pictures up.
