The upper edge of the float is formed so that upon contact with a gasket assembly, a valve is formed with said gasket assembly. A reed switch secured to the cap body is opened or closed in response to movement of the float so that the reed switch actuates suitable warning means when the level of coolant falls over a predetermined line.
