PRIOR TO TESTING
4.1.1.
Make sure you have read warnings before use.
4.1.2.
Remove radiator pressure cap and check condition.
4.1.3.
Inspect filler neck for any sharp obtrusions that may damage the bladder and remove if necessary.
4.1.4.
Check coolant level and top up if required.
4.1.5.
To ensure secure fitting and positive sealing it is desirable that two thirds of the bladder (fig.1.3) is below the lower flange on the
radiator or header tank neck before being inflated.
fig.1
NOTE: It may not always be possible to adjust the bladder the desirable position (two thirds of the bladder below lower flange). The
flexible nature of the inflatable bladder will create the required seal in these applications.

4.2.
PRESSURE TESTING
WARNING: DO NOT run engine while pressure testing.
‰
Note: If testing is being carried out on a warm engine a pressure drop may occur due to engine cool down, which may not be due
to a leak. Pressurise and inspect again after cool down is complete.
