was planning on doing it today so got the cap and sorted the pressure fitting
then the clouds opened & i thought F**k that for a game of soldiers it can wait till tomorrow
it was reasonably easy to do
remove the centre sensor - had to break the cap part to remove it
I then drilled it out with a 20 mm wood bit - take care as it bites when it hits the brass/metal contacts
once i got down to the cap i drilled out a 10 mm hole to fit the brass connection
managed to screw it all together and fit to reservoir for a pressure test
found it leaks the part of the cap that has the seal is not sealed into the cap after drilling out the sensor parts
found some Arraldite in the shed and mixed up enough to seal the inside see second photo - only mix enough to seal the inside I did it in 2 steps about 1 inch from each tube per mix
once it was all set worked perfectly - wont be able to use it on anything else tho

or DIY for around £3
go to scrappy for the cap (£2 for mine) and 1/2 hours time
i suppose you could use silicone where i used the arraldite - i didnt have any to hand
