It would be much easier to remove and index the IP. An additional advantage is that you could adjust the IP timing at the same time.

Many parts stores will lend you a pressure tester. It's way better to investigate coolant leaks when it's cool and quiet.

a) A good negotiator doesn't walk away.

b) A good negotiator would much rather be negotiating the price up than have the other party in control and negotiating the price down.

But is it okay for the expansion tank to remain full all night?

Don't you reckon it would be a little inconvenient to get up at 3 am to run out to the street and turn the standing lights off?

Or do you recommend turning them off at midnight and back on at 4:30?
