I'll probably do that in any case.
Well, that's all you'll need - it's only holding 2 1/2 psi (when the
leak has filled behind it) and the valve will hold back all but the leak
when you take the cap off.
The cap will cost $44 (2,5" firehose)
I know that you have a lathe! BG
Yes but the firehose thread is 7 tpi, not listed on my change gear
charts ;(

On my lathe, I have to swap the stud gear from 24 tooth to 48. Then I
get 4 - 7 instead of 8 - 14. Could you do similar somewhere in your
gear train?
My error, the thread I need is 7 1/2 tpi ;(
