Thanks for setting the argument. I told the parts jockey that the water pump only circulates fluid. As things expand due to heat that will create the pressure and the system uses that pressure to raise the boiling point of the 50/50. He was adamant that I had it wrong and was trying to argue that with me.
Yeah, I’m not trying to look for menace in our shadows out here. Radiator cap was actually found to be bad on the last 2 cars we’ve driven around. You’d be amazed (Well, probably not you personally) how much difference a correct functional radiator cap can make.
We’re going to move forward with a tear down of the front end/frame section on Sunday. If everything plays nice, I should be able to remove the rotted-out K-Frame and have things ready for putting back together on Wednesday.
Thanks again!
