The radiator cap plays a crucial role in your cooling system. Its job is to make sure the cooling system stays pressurized, but if it achieves too much pressure the cap bleeds off coolant and air so that other crucial components do not fail.

Radiator caps come in different pressure ratings depending on the vehicle. However if you run a high-performance aftermarket radiator and aftermarket hoses, it is often possible to upgrade to a higher pressure cap. This will allow the cooling system to operate at slightly increased pressures which will keep coolant circulating through the motor when things get hot.
