if you have a 15lb cap and 50/50 a/f your system wouldn't boil until it reached 212 + 18
+ 45 = 275 degrees F so 210 would be in the normal operating range

do not confuse the normal boiiling point of water at 212 with what you have under pressure.

I'll dump it all and put in 50/50. Snow day here so maybe maybe I'll get somthing done.
Nothing done so far. Lots of thinkin
