thats the boiling point temperature of water at sea level sandeep. This point drops 10C every 300m. If we go to the top of Everest, evaporation pressure equals atmospheric pressure at only 700C - not enough to coagulate - cook - an egg!! so my question is what radiator cap would you use if you drove to the top of everest :biggrin: (this will test u sandeep)
.. and, in sandeep's analysis, is not another consideration the fact that the OEM temp gauge is a 3 step arrangement ... that it is not a degree by degree, progressive gauge ....????

also watch out for your heater core I'd advise against anything other than the standard caps - I had one for a while and didn't see any difference in cooling system temps (on aftermarket gauge)... but did have to replace the heater core in my car. Well known z mechanic suggested he sees a lot of cars with 1.2bar caps needing heater core replacements. I'm sure it's not always a problem but why put the extra stress on anything for such minimal gains.
