Does anyone need a high pressure radiator cap ??
Using a higher pressure radiator cap means that the cooling system
pressure will rise to a higher than standard value, before the cap opens and relieves the pressure. This will place a higher pressure on any join or sealing surface in the cooling system. If the joint is marginal. then you can expect to find weeping from under hose clips, and from screwed or bolted joints. Usually, just re-tightening the clips or bolts is enough to take care of the problem. Slightly off-topic: the factory designs an engine to run at a certain temperature. The OEM ECU is configured to apply safety factors once the design temperature is exceeded. I have never seen any evidence to suggest that it is a good idea to raise the cooling system maximum pressure (and hence engine temperature) on a road/sometimes track car. Cheers... jondee86 |
