Non pressure type. Fluid will find it's level (approx. 2 inches below cap) after boiling over. This type system (thermosiphon action) operates better with the non pressure cap.

Some later Cubs had a pressure cap. I haven't been able to find any indication of when the change was made. Your tractor should be fine either way.

cccub:

Having fun with my new catalogue..

If your cap just needs the gasket then order Part # 351030R91

If you want the old style non-pressurized cap then that is Part# 351030R91
which is replaced Part #400584R1. If I remember correctly when I got mine the replacement is actually a pressure cap. If you want the original, you will have to find someone with NOS.

I think my dealer said the gasket was still available for the old style cap is you want to rehabilitate yours.
