A few of you pointed out that the bladder should absorb the pressure increase. If I pump in s; /html/fot/2002-10/msg00002.html (8,224 bytes)

I brought my TR4 to the TX ABCD yesterday, and it sat in the sun all day. The gauge showed 80psi when I parked it.

Fittings/plumbing failures yes. Is/was it the type with screw-in end plates or circlip retained "plug" type? If the latter, perha; /html/fot/2002-09/msg00305.html (7,532 bytes)

I've had mine since the early '80s and it usually sits at 80 or so as well, but the gauge on it goes to 150. Yeah, it might; /html/fot/2002-09/msg00306.html (9,242 bytes)
