2. Instruction of radiator pressure tester
2.1 check leakage in radiator system with radiator caps (material-Nylon 66)
Step 1: Remove the original radiator cap while the engine is cold.
Step 2: Choose a test cap suiting the connection type onto the radiator. Screw the cap onto the radiator opening(Fig.1).
Step 3: Connect the pump to the test cap through the quick coupling at the hose end.
Step 4: Pump until pressure is approximately 10~15psi(Fig.2). If the gauge pointer perfectly efficient; if the gauge goes down and no fluid discharges can be located, check whether the engine head gasket is worn. (CAUTION: please avoid the pressure up to the 35psi)
Step 5: Finally, release pressure through the button next to the quick coupling, and put away the device, after removing any fluid or dirt.
2.2 Check leakage on original radiator cap
Step 1: Choose the #2A or #2B with available steel radiator.
Step 2: Work the hand pump for few times, and then check the gauge reading for testing leakage. (Fig. 3)
Step 3: Follow the pressure standard shows on original radiator cap.
