Pressure Cap

All models use a 16 lb. pressure cap which should be tested at 14-17 lbs. Cap is also equipped with a vent valve in center of cap that allows a small flow through the cap when temperature is below boiling, but closes when boiling point is reached.

CAUTION: Warning words "DO NOT OPEN HOT" printed on radiator pressure cap are a safety precaution and should be heeded whenever engine is warm.
