Radiator Cap Opening Pressure Check
NOTE:
Be sure that the radiator cap is clean before testing. Rust or other foreign material on the radiator cap seal will cause an improper reading.
- Use a cap adapter to attach the radiator cap to the tester.
- Increase the pressure until the indicator of the gauge stops moving.
Minimum limit: 83 kPa (12 psi)
Standard value: 93 - 123 kPa (14 - 18 psi)
- Replace the radiator cap if the reading does not remain at or above the limit.
