    2. Increase pressure until the radiator cap tester gauge needle stops. The inverter tank cap is functioning properly if it holds the service limit pressure for 5 - 6 seconds. Replace the inverter tank cap if it opens under pressure at or less than the service limit value.
    CAUTION: Be sure to remove foreign matter and rust in advance. Otherwise, results of pressure test will be incorrect.
