Radiator Cap: Testing and Inspection
Radiator Pressure Cap
RADIATOR PRESSURE CAP
Dip the pressure cap (1) in water. Clean any deposits off the vent valve or its seat and apply cap to end of the Pressure Cap Test Adaptor that is included
with the Pressure Tester 7700. Working the plunger, bring the pressure to 104 kPa (15 psi) on the gauge. If the pressure cap fails to hold pressure of at
least 97 kPa (14 psi), replace the pressure cap.
CAUTION: The Cooling System Tester Tool is very sensitive to small air leaks that will not cause cooling system problems. A pressure cap that
does not have a history of coolant loss should not be replaced just because it leaks slowly when tested with this tool. Add water to the tool. Turn
tool upside down and recheck pressure cap to confirm that cap is bad.
If the pressure cap tests properly while positioned on Pressure Tester (2), but will not hold pressure or vacuum when positioned on the filler neck.
Inspect the filler neck and cap top gasket for irregularities that may prevent the cap from sealing properly.
