Get an OEM radiator cap from a dealership.

ya that is what I was thinkin of doing tomorrow. but the one that was on the old radiator is the OEM and it did not fit either, but it is a little worn out. So I am willing to try it.

Got the OEM cap and it does not fit call the manufacturer and they don't know what is going on. I am getting a new radiator from them with cap that fits. spectrum premium is the company they are very helpful.
