[Mg-t] Pressurized cooling system?

[Charlie Baldwin]

The TD radiator cap has a rubber o-ring that seals it pretty well.  
Actually it lies in the groove on the filler neck.
I've also had no problems with a radiator in good shape.  It heats up 
most when turning higher rpms on the highway, but stays well below 
boiling.  Never a problem at lower speeds.
