More on radiator caps...........................

Posted by Randy Baker [208.91.6.24] on Sunday, November 18, 2012 at 12:47:15 :

I was looking at the VPW catalog and they show both pressurized and non pressurized for the FFPW. But, the non pressurized states "used with over flow tank". So, I'm guessing the are both correct but one is without and one is with an overflow tank.
I'm going to call VPW tomorrow and see what they have to say about this and most likely order a 7 PSI radiator cap because I don't have an over flow tank and I can't find the correct cap here locally.
