Is it 14lbs in our systems or higher or lower?

Ooops, meant "cooling" pressure

Corrected title for you.

thanks Hunter!

I hope it is the info you wanted. I look up Autozone as I just bought one from them.

W126 the radiator cap is rated 20lbs

W123 is rated 13lbs.

The FSM calls for one bar = 14 PSI pressure test.

You have e-mail.

Thanks again Hunter, then I guessed correctly today as 14lbs was stuck in my head for some reason. I picked up a MAC radiator tester/pump off Craigs List for 20.00 -works great!

My 126 is supposed to have a 1.4 bar cap in it. That's 19.6 psi.
