NO.
If it did though i would seriously consider buying it ... thats the only reason i dont now. Plus Ecomike's clamp trick works great too! I have still yet to try a volvo 940 cap ... but i probably will in the future.
Here is mine. VERY satisfied
CONVERT TO THE OPEN SYSTEM, NO MORE problems! Run air in Moab @ 90 outside temp and no Issues, have the fan on a switch and a 10 blade fan, way better for sure.
While getting my 89 Renix XJ inspected yesterday, I noticed a small, new coolant leak at the bottom hose under the reservoir bottle. Bottle was only 12 months old, and still looked new. It was a Crown bottle. I tried to tighten the hose clamp and the leak got worse.
My inspection found that the bottom plastic nipple has gotten deformed under the worm gear clamp pressure in the center of the nipple, and now has a weak flat spot. Installed a new hose, two clamps, one above the other this time, with the worm gear screw/flat areas 120 degrees off from each other.
And I ordered 3 more POS Renix bottles for $22 each delivered from stevewhitemotors.com
as my 87 Bottle is showing stress from being crushed between the hood and shelf again (another roundtoit project, I still need to lower the shelf bracket).
Must admit, alternatives are starting to be considered with this latest issue. The bottom plastic nipple does not have a metal sleeve inside like the smaller side nipple does.
Damn for $60 dollars more you could have just got the Macs bottle.

JJacobs,
Yours is getting hotter than mine so far. I have never had trouble with the stud under the strap, and the clamp on the cap has worked flawlessly for me.
How would you know that? Mine runs 180. Apparently we're not using the same parts, as this batch of Dorman tanks is clearly junk.
If you have to run a hose clamp on the cap you're not doing much better.
