I'm working on the Tamiya M113A1 FSV and was wondering if the radiator cap is incorrect. I've found mention of the fuel cap location being moved for the A1 but nothing on the radiator cap. It's the same as the one on the Tamiya basic M113 kit. I know it's the current style on the A2 but the M106A1 I was on had the current hinged flap.

I've got John Myszka's Australian Fire Support Vehicles which is great but doesn't have a good shot showing the radiator cap.

Thanks,
Paul

Scanned and enlarged a picture for the John Myszka book and it looks like a screw cap that is flush with the deck and has a handle on top.



Is this common to all M113A1s?
