Just wrap a bunch of duct tape around the caps to compensate for the size difference. Works everytime.....


Yea Napa has screwed me more than any other parts store.

Good old Napa, honestly it doesnt matter which parts store you go to anymore, bunch of minimum wage kids working who just don't care...

I do like the duct tape idea!
