Pressurized cooling systems were not designed to prevent over heating, or
loss of coolant due to expansion or loss of coolant due to boiling. A
pressurized system helps prevent blown head gaskets, by keeping the coolant @
the
exhaust valve pocket a liquid, instead of a boiling vapor, even when the
engine temperature reads 160 degrees F. Both pressurized & non pressurized
systems will push coolant out of the overflow tube if overfilled, coolant
should
be 1 3/4" or so below the filler neck. </HTML>
