Re: Stus-List radiator cap replacement
I replaced mine with an 8 psi cap. Honestly, I am not sure if it the right one. But, two seasons later my Perkins (M20) is still working fine. My high temp is more like 185 - 190 F. If you find info on what the opening pressure should be, I would like to know. Marek Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.

It’s easy to find a replacement that fits physically, but what opening pressure rating should it have? At 2000-3000 rpm, the temperature gauge reads about 175 F degrees.
