Hello everyone, I am a student at Polytechnic University of Valencia and we are designing our first car this year. I am in charge of the refrigeration system and I have an issue that I haven't been able to solve looking for in other posts or other forums.
My problem is that I don't know if a radiator cap of 1.3 bar would be too much compared with the pressure that our engine can accept. In other words, maybe I buy a 1.3 bar radiator cap, but my engine starts to leak water at 1.25 for example, and I must buy a 1.2 bar.
We have an Honda CBR 600 RR 2004 engine, with original thermostat and water pump.
Thank you for the aid.
