A 16 psi will work just fine.

Stant Model 11230 or 11330

11230 is a normal sealed cap

11330 is the cap with the pressure release lever

They are both available from Advance Auto:

11230 is $4.68:

11330 is $5.68:

I use the 11330, because if I have any problems, I like the ability to relieve the pressure without having to worry about getting burned.

Model 11330 may also be available at Wal*Mart.

Re: stant rad cap

I go by the KISS principle

Keep It Simple Stupid

I use the most simple part to get the job done. The more complicated the part, the more it is apt to fail.

That is why I use a 11230.
