🔌 Function

Holds the cooling system at its designed 100 kPa working pressure, raising the coolant's boiling point, and vents to the overflow above that pressure.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Coolant pushed into the overflow whenever the engine gets hot
• Boiling or steaming at temperatures the gauge says should be safe
• Perished, swollen or torn sealing rubber on the cap
• Weak or seized spring so the cap no longer holds pressure
• Hose collapse on cooling down because the vacuum valve has stuck shut

🛠️ Service Notes

• Only ever remove a pressure cap on a cold system; hot coolant under pressure comes out at you
• Fit the cap specified for your engine — its pressure rating is part of the cooling system design, and a cap that vents at the wrong pressure causes overheating or collapsed hoses
• Check the seat in the filler neck is clean and undamaged first, as a good cap cannot seal against a corroded or distorted seat
• Fit the cap right home to its stop so both the pressure valve and the vacuum valve can work as intended
• When hoses collapse or the level in the expansion tank swings and never returns, suspect the cap's vacuum valve before chasing bigger faults
