Bill,

13-15# is about "normal" for my engine, although occasionally I've seen 20
psi.  As the engine and coolant heat they expand which causes the pressure
to rise.  If you get localized boiling around the plugs, you're liable to
see higher pressure.  The cap should release at 21#, so that is the max your
engine will be subjected to.

Someone asked (I think it was Kelley) about how my Renesis water pump was
working out.  Well, I'm happy to report that it seems to be working great.
 This is the trick Mazda Trix custom cartridge ($275/ea).  It seems to work
as well as the stock 20B cartridge did, but it weighs about 8 lbs. less.
 Works out to $100 per 3# of weigh loss.  I hear that is a good cost ratio.
