One thing I notice on my car is that on the overflow the pressure cap is
rated at 13lbs. I remember something about the proper pressure being in the
5lb. neighborhood. Could this be a contributing factor to my highway
overheating? Drove it in to work this am - temp. gauge reading right down
the middle. BTW - visual inspection of my radiator core does not reveal any
corrosion and I have the factory air deflector under the car. Weird.
