    How do you figure? You are piping from one water jacket port to a bottle and right back to another water jacket port. Sure a milk jug or soda 2 liter bottle isn't gonna holds up to a lot of pressure, but the system should only be under what? 14 lbs? That's not a lot.


    Edit: with the 5 gallon bucket method with no return line, you just have someone adding coolant. Or heck, stick a garden hose in the radiator cap.

    They pressure tested the system to 15PSI(Cap rated) No leaks. We started it and ran it let it build air and it didn't build pressure.

    Lowering interest rates helps increase investment. The internet rate is real low right now. They will raise it if they view the economy to be strong enough to handle it. I don't know what their view is of the optimal long term interest rate.

    I'm not surprised. The measure has been in the works for awhile. I still think OO do t need to worry as much. Most here maintain their trucks properly and would rarely have issues. The issues that those that have them have is due to them not doing the prescribed maintenance. Just my observation. I'm sure most have a different opinion.
