Recommendation - Coolant System Pressure tester tool?
Anyone have a recommendation on a cooling system pressure tester that works well on the FD? The ones from my local auto parts store usually don't work very well on the FD so I'd like to buy one so I can test the system when desired. I think the auto parts store usually carry a Stant.
Thanks.
Thanks.

If you have deleted the ast and installed the fc filler neck outlet ( you could do this with the ast as well I guess) , the super easy way is to attach a hose from the outlet to a pressure source with a gauge. I use the mityvac model mv8255. Put the zero pressure cap on so you can watch the gauge over time and pump it up to desired pressure. I’m sure you can rent or buy but I’ve found this to be a cheap alternate for people who have this stuff already. Picture attached Good luck!
PS~ you will need to use a couple zip ties to hold the hose cause they sometimes like to pop off and spray some antifreeze in your mouth
