Felix verified that the cap recommended by FT is a 10 pound cap.

It might also depend on the year/engine.  Different cooling packages and all....

I was under the impression that Barry "Beam" has a 10# one that he got while in Cody a few weeks ago. I replaced mine and it is 10 as well.

Mine was a 15 that I replaced in Cody. BJ Holden's 1998 U320 was a #10 that she replaced.
We had exchanged caps on the way to Cody to see if that would solve my problem.
My problem went away and hers did not have the problem. Go Figure  ::)

I believe Michelle has the right answer. It appears the pressure cap is year and engine dependant. I still had an old cap from my 1993 U280 and it was 15#. B.J. Holden's 1998 U320 is 10# so that would lead me to believe that my 1999 U320 would be the same. By the way I did not verify this information from FOT. I just went by the # on the old cap.

My radiator cap is leaking. Went back to this thread for pressure information. Found what I needed and that's what this Forum brings to the table.
