    Where do I buy a radiator cap pressure adaptor? (Bobcat 975)

    I'm having trouble buying one for this size opening! The size is 2 1/16" inside x 2 1/2" outside diameter. This adaptor fits on the radiator neck and allows a automotive pressure tester to be used. If anyone know a website or parts store that sells this adaptor, please post it. Thanks, Dean
