[QUOTE="Flummo, post: 228468, member: 25195"] You are wrong: the pressure cap is there to prevent boiling after the engine is turned off, when the water stopps moving around a cylinder or head hotter than 100 degrees it will boil w/o the pressure kept by the cap. The pressure held by the washer is needed to keep the engine from boiling while running, since it is hotter then. Water flowing too fast too draw off heat??? That is complete bull****! Faster moving water cooles just as well as, and often better than slow moving water. All this is explained much better in A. Graham Bells book "two-stroke performance tuning". [/QUOTE]
