What psi a clio 172 coolant bottle cap is?

Long odds someone might know on here but I'm sick to death of asking on CS and all I get is "why do you want to know that?"

BECAUSE I ****ING WANT TO! :lol:

Well I think its 1.4 bar so prove me wrong.

Was thinking of using a willy cap instead so I can use my hill power covers as it won't fit on the ghey new ones. But wan't to know if they're roughly the same values so I don't have any issues.

A higher Cap pressure will increase the boiling point of coolant in your system not such a bad thing!

Well mines a tad mucky but I think thats due to lack of regular changes from the first owner.

Hence the new tank and green coolant - although looking into changing it its gonna be a reet cnut!

Took me long enough to swap the battery yesterday!
