    Most radiator pressure caps are rated at 15 psi pressure. A human can blow air pressure at 1.5 psi which is way below the radiator pressure test pump that is capable of producing a pressure of up to 30 psi.

    I love how they work in bare feet or even just flip-flops.
    I have a 1972 Land Rover Series III Truck Cab/Pick-Up and a 1962 Land Rover Series 2a Carawagon Camper.
