Default Re: Toyo radiator ( model # 60300 AF ) 's cap puts too little pressure on coolant

| Possibly a blown head or manifold gasket
Other symptoms will appear, if either gasket cracked.

| dissolved gasses are driven off
To where ? They cannot escape when radiator cap is closed, & will re
-dissolve into coolant ( when cool ), esp COČ ( quite soluble in cool
water ).

| normal operating temperature
Pls define.
My brother's Mercedes 280 has a maximum water temperature of 79°
C, but his C200 - 90°C. Japanese cars' tmprtre gauges lack calibration
, I can only guess what their water's max tmprtres are.
