Ah. We can safely assume your ALDA is not a virgin then. They come from the factory with a plastic cap/seal over the screw, not something that pops off and gets lost, as the Gods of Bosch aren't keen on owner servicing of their lovely pump. On my old SD it was black, others say theirs was silver/grey.
This does not necessarily mean anything. Only one out of the four turbodiesels I have owned had the cap still in place when I got it.
