Your way sounds good too. As well as tape the ends closed. John
I have used the rubber caps that come from an acetylene torch. I went by the local dealer just before last X-mas and he gave me a set of 4.

Years ago Cat had aluminun threaded caps to put on the pumps & nozzle & later years they came with plastic caps on them. Any way to cover them is good so no dirt gets in them.I always had a bunch of the threaded caps so was no trouble around the shop.The real early caps I saw too were brass nuts (caps).
Small balloons work great, and are cheap!!
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
