The radiator cap on my '72 is showing some wear (inside brass cracked and
missing in places), so I went to get a replacement from my '73 parts car.
Both were Stant 'Lever-Caps', but the '72 had a 14lb cap while the '73 had
a 7lb one.  I also noticed in LMCs current catalog they called out
different pressures for different years, but will there be any problem with
using the LOWER pressure cap on my '72 ?

I guess, for the price, I should just break down and buy a new one, but
does it make a difference which one?

lurking in digest mode,
