I got the 16 psi version, although the pic shows a 13. Here's a pic for reference:
1. Ok, first, where does it actually measure, say, 180? Does it measure that right in the middle of where it says 180? Or does it measure on one of the lines? Trying to get an accurate reading. EDIT: OK i just answered this question for myself by converting the celcius readings to farenheit. It does indeed indicate the temperature right where it says it, and the lines are increments of 10.
2. Is this an accurate reading of engine temperatures, or is there a large difference between temperatures at the intake and at the radiator? Is this a good alternative to a temp gauge?
3. 2471B fits a 90 fox radiator, right? Seems like this screwed on tight in much less of a turn than the stock cap. Is that right?
4. Last question: At what temperature would you say it is safe to open up the cap?
Thank you!!!
