C15D Coolant Tank Cap 'Missing'!! - corblimeyguvnar

Just noticed and dont know how long it has been missing but the coolant tank cap on my old Citroen C15D van is no longer there, question being, am I going to do any damage/risk a breakdown if I keep using the van until I can get a replacement next week?, also any ideas where I can get one?, have asked a few breakers on Ebay but they havent got back to me yet.
Cheers

You can use it without causing damage. Coolant will evaporate a bit quicker though, so watch level. Pressure cap increases boiling point so delays boil up if things get extremely hot, but doesn't affect normal running.
