kuhlerverschluss-uberdruckventil offnungsdruck 0.78 bar prufdruck zur kuhlerdichtheit 1.00 bar in verlag workshop manual but I don't understand German so I'm not sure if it's the right info just a comment and a personal opinion but on the whole I wouldn't rely too much on haynes better to get hold of a pucka Lancia issued workshop manual plus the latest update of the technical databook that you can find (and the later style short manual if you have an injection car) Title: Re: Expansion tank cap pressure Post by: HFStuart on March 29, 2011, 09:26:16 AM Great - I couldn't find that in my UK manual.
Loosly translated - Cap opening pressure 0.78bar, cooling system test pressure 1.00 bar Thanks, |
