    Marine Battery Vent Caps

    So, earlier today I picked up a marine battery with six vent caps on top. Only problem is that one is missing. Is there anything I can do to fix that besides putting another cap on it?

    try checking with your local yard to see if they have a similar battery with similar caps ?

    turn a plastic drink bottle cap upside down and press into it? (maybe vent it with a small hole in middle?)
