Re: [DML] Re: Cooling System - High Pressure

[Jeff Phillips <rvparty@xxxxxxxxx>]

I had a leaking head gasket on mine.  It would hold a pressure just
fine but would blow out coolant when under a load, like heavy
accelleration.  Other than that it displayed no typical signs of head
gasket failure as the leak only occured under combustion pressure. 
Ie.  No coolant in the cylinders, no oil in the coolant, no sweet
smelling exhaust.  I also ran the engine with the pressure tester on
and watched the pressure climb and exceeded 15 psi.  If you are
experienceing overheating then be concerned with it.  If you are not
then run the right cap and if there are no problems then don't dig for
one.
