Fill the radiator with coolant.
(Refer to Cooling System - "Coolant")
Start engine and check for leaks.
Remove the radiator cap, wet its seal with engine coolant, then install it on a pressure tester.
Apply a pressure of 93.16 ~ 122.58 kPa (0.95 ~ 1.25 kg/cm², 13.51 ~ 17.78 psi).
Check for a drop in pressure.
If the pressure drops, replace the cap.
