Yes that's right Richard, just the plain cap with no holes. There is also nothing in the neck of the radiator as someone has suggested I look for the pressure assembly, I am trying to reduce the size of my photo's but don't seem to be having much luck. When the pressure releases the water must just come out of the top as there is no seal as such but there is no overflow or should the cap have holes?
Thanks for your help on this,
Paul

Paul,
It looks like you may be missing the castellated sealing ring which screws in the neck as well as the tube and spring.

Hope the pictures have uplifted
The cap is plain but the hole has some kind of spring as if I press down on the smallest inside diameter it bounces back up. Not sure about getting the thing out but I have put some release fluid on and will have a go tomorrow. This is some thing to work on at least. It may be just a matter of pulling the inside up and out?
