Hello, could you please advise me what pressure cap i should have on my 86 951 expansion tank. At the moment the cap reads 150, is this correct?
Thankyou.

Not sure about the 150 but I think the pressure cap is rated at 14 or 15 psi.

Not sure where I read this spec., but I believe the 951 uses a 1.5 bar (22 psi) radiator cap. The 150 on the present cap may be related to the 1.5 bar pressure rating.

I confirmed this in the shop manual technical specifications: 951 uses 1.5 bar cap, 944 uses 1.0 bar cap.

Beamz, I got a new one from the dealer a couple of months ago and it is marked 150. Behr brand.

Try a bottle of Red Line Waterwetter - the stuff works great.
