Tomorrow I hope to go Junkyard Hunting for a Ford Clutch fluid Resivoir cap. It is prone to warping thus leaking and for some stupid reason, Ford discontinued the part in 2012. Anyway, Have a photo I took today with my iPotato 6. Its also in !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! collection over on the Photography blog if you wanna check out the other photos I took today.

why not try looking at aftermarket sources?

see if non genuine cap will fit?

surely there is an aftermarket version of the cylinder?

Been there, done that. It was discontinued too recently for there to be an aftermarket version. I looked everywhere.

I know dat feel. Broke a headlight switch in the '96, too new for aftermarket. Fuuuuuuck, $100 for salvaged. And that one is starting to go, too.

Why would a manufacturer discontinue a plastic part that is known to change shape and leak? Thats the stupidest thing I ever heard

Better question:

Why don't newer Ford cars just use the same damn cap but with better plastic?

Even better question: Why do only 93-94 rangers and explorers use this part?

Even betterer question: Why dont junkyards list transmissions on their online inventory? There is a U pull and pay near me with 5 rangers in stock. I have no idea how many of them are sticks, and I dont want to pay $2 admission to come out empty handed.

Even bettererer question: Why didnt more people buy manuals in 93-94? They got way better MPGs than their automatic counterparts.
