What radiator cap?
The original motorcraft cap on the truck had cracked seals and was leaking. I bought a cheap one (I think it was 5 or 6 bucks) at oreilly auto and it leaks worse than the original one. The oreilly one feels real cheesy like its made of a tin can.
What caps are people running? Should I just order one at the dealership?
Thanks.

Mine is 13lbs. Just went out to the truck and checked. It's a new cap direct from Tousley Ford (my favorite online parts people), and they didn't offer me any options when I called.

Actually, it looks like 'RS-62' IS the Part Number, although I cannot find any information on whether that really is the OEM cap for my truck. Here's the tech data on it from RockAuto:
More Information for MOTORCRAFT RS62
Like I said, all I did was call up Steve at Tousley Ford and tell him I needed a rad cap for my truck and this is what arrived. Seems to be working fine.....
