Pressure Relief Cap Pressure Test
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Inspect the pressure relief cap and seals for damage or deterioration. Install a new pressure relief cap if necessary.
- Using the correct adapter, fit the pressure relief cap to the Radiator Tester.

NOTE: If the plunger of the pressure tester is pressed to fast, an incorrect pressure reading results.
Slowly press the plunger of the pressure test pump until the pressure gauge stops increasing and note the highest pressure reading. Release the pressure and repeat the test. Install a new pressure relief cap if the pressure is not within the pressure listed in the SPECIFICATIONS .
