I was at an engine rebuilding meeting and found out that some engine shops replace radiator caps on most rebuilds and replace them with lower pressure caps such as 13 lbs instead of say 16 lbs and in some cases 7 lbs.
We don't replace radiator caps unless they are defective and then only purchase Stant or oem..
I don't think a 13 lb. cap would hurt anything but a 7 lb. seems to low pressure. My ocd keeps me from cutting certain corners My top rebuilder does not think cap pressure makes such a difference... What does my fellow Bitogers think?
