Subject:Cooling System Pressure Testing - make your own tool CHEAP!
From:Tabe Johnson

If you're a cheap bas... uh, I mean value driven like me,
you can gut a used cap to remove the valving and attach an
air compressor or hand tire pump to the pressure tank.  Apply
your chosen pressure (I'm thinking 50PSI is NOT a good choice!)
and look for leaks.  Beats the heck out of the $50 pressure
testers for sale.
